Solving the Infinite-horizon Constrained LQR Problem using Accelerated Dual Proximal Methods

Colin Neil Jones, Milan Korda, Georgios Stathopoulos

This work presents an algorithmic scheme for solving the infinite-time constrained linear quadratic regulation problem. We employ an accelerated version of a popular proximal gradient scheme, commonly known as the Forward-Backward Splitting (FBS), and prov ...

High performance carbon-based printed perovskite solar cells with humidity assisted thermal treatment

Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Mohammad Ibrahim Dar, Syed Ghufran Hashmi

We report humidity assisted thermal exposure (HTE) as a post-treatment method for carbon based printed perovskite solar cells (CPSCs). The method does not only improve the interfaces of different layers of the printed stack, but also provides a pathway to ...
