Robust and Gain-Scheduled PID Controller Design for Condensing Boilers by Linear Programming

Alireza Karimi, Vinicius De Oliveira

This paper addresses the water temperature control in condensing domestic boilers. The main challenge of this process under the controller design perspective is the fact that the dynamics of condensing boilers are strongly affected by the demanded water fl ...

Plug-and-Play Model Predictive Control based on robust control invariant sets

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate, Marcello Farina

In this paper we consider a linear system represented by a coupling graph between subsystems and propose a distributed control scheme capable to guarantee asymptotic stability and satisfaction of constraints on system inputs and states. Most importantly, a ...

Tube-based distributed control of linear constrained systems

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate

In this paper we consider a linear system structured into physically coupled subsystems and propose an innovative distributed control scheme capable to guarantee asymptotic stability and satisfaction of constraints on system inputs and states. Our method h ...

Run-to-Run MPC Tuning via Gradient Descent

Dominique Bonvin, Grégory François, Gene Bunin

A gradient-descent method for the run-to-run tuning of MPC controllers is proposed. It is shown that, with an assumption on process repeatability, the MPC tuning parameters may be brought to a locally optimal set. SISO and MIMO examples illustrate the char ...

MPC for tracking periodic reference signals

Colin Neil Jones, Melanie Nicole Zeilinger

This paper is devoted to the design of a predictive controller for constrained linear systems to track periodic references. The only assumption on the dynamics of the reference is that it is periodic and its period is known. It is also assumed that the ref ...

Kalman Filtering for a Generalized Class of Nonlinear Systems and a New Gaussian Quadrature Technique

The class of nonlinear systems treated in this technical note consists of the discrete time nonlinear systems that are formed by the interconnection of linear systems through static nonlinearities with few inputs. This special structure is exploited to red ...

Nonlinear Control of Large Scale complex Systems using Convex Control Design tools

Based on recent advances on convex design for Large-Scale Control Systems (LSCSs) and robust and efficient LSCS self-tuning/adaptation, a methodology is proposed in this paper which aims at providing an integrated LSCS-design, applicable to large-scale sys ...

An Efficient Method to Estimate the Suboptimality of Affine Controllers

Daniel Kuhn

We consider robust feedback control of time-varying, linear discrete-time systems operating over a finite horizon. For such systems, we consider the problem of designing robust causal controllers that minimize the expected value of a convex quadratic cost ...
