ECMS for energy management of hybrid vessels via quasi-LPV control

This work proposes a controller design that integrates an Equivalent Consumption Minimization Strategy framework and a quasi-LPV framework. The proposed scheme allows exploiting the characteristics of both frameworks. Also, a proof of the input-state-stability (ISS) of the closed-loop is presented, expressed as linearmatrix-inequality conditions...

Sizing and Control of a Hybrid Ship Propulsion System Using Multi-Objective Double-Layer Optimization

Ship hybridization has received some interests recently in order to achieve the emission target by 2050. However, designing and optimizing a hybrid propulsion system is a complicated problem. Sizing components and optimizing energy management control are coupled with each other. This paper applies a nested double-layer optimization...
