Moment-sum-of-squares hierarchies for set approximation and optimal control

Milan Korda

This thesis uses the idea of lifting (or embedding) a nonlinear controlled dynamical system into an infinite-dimensional space of measures where this system is equivalently described by a linear equation. This equation and problems involving it are subsequ ...

Optimization Based Control for Target Estimation and Tracking via Highly Observable Trajectories An Application to Motion Control of Autonomous Robotic Vehicles

Colin Neil Jones, Andrea Alessandretti, António Pedro Rodrigues de Aguiar

This paper proposes a Model Predictive Control (MPC) scheme to solve the target estimation and tracking problem. The objective is to derive a feedback law that drives an autonomous robotic vehicle to follow a target vehicle using an on-line estimate of the ...

Mapping with MAV: Experimental Study on the Contribution of Absolute and Relative Aerial Position Control

Jan Skaloud, Martin Rehak

This study highlights the benefit of precise aerial position control in the context of mapping using frame-based imagery taken by small UAVs. We execute several flights with a custom Micro Aerial Vehicle (MAV) octocopter over a small calibration field equi ...

Study of optimal design of polygeneration systems in optimal control strategies

François Maréchal, Mario Paolone, Ramanunni Parakkal Menon

The concept of smart grids being developed involves interdependence between the electrical, thermal and material flows. Control strategies are required for the optimal operation of these modern grids. This paper studies the optimal design of multi-node mic ...

Study of optimal design of polygeneration systems in optimal control strategies

François Maréchal, Mario Paolone, Ramanunni Parakkal Menon

Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd2013

In this chapter an algorithm for nonlinear explicit model predictive control is presented. A low complexity receding horizon control law is obtained by approximating the optimal control law using multiscale basis function approximation. Simultaneously, fea ...

Springer London2012

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 ...

An Efficient Method to Estimate the Suboptimality of Affine Controllers

Daniel Kuhn

Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers2011

Recent research has proposed mainstream traffic flow control (MTFC), enabled via variable speed limits (VSLs), as a novel motorway traffic management tool and has demonstrated its efficiency based on sophisticated optimal control methods that may face diff ...
