Storani, Facundo (author), Di Pace, Roberta (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author)The paper proposes a traffic responsive control framework based on a Model Predictive Control (MPC) approach. The framework focuses on a centralized method, which can simultaneously compute the network decision variables (i.e., the green timings at each junction and the offset of the traffic light plans of the network). Furthermore, the...journal article 2022

Kassing, R.C. (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author), Abraham, E. (author)Distributing water optimally is a complex problem that many farmers face yearly, especially in times of drought. In this work, we propose optimization‐based feedback control to improve crop yield and water productivity in agriculture irrigation for a plantation consisting of multiple fields. The interaction between soil, water, crop (sugarcane...journal article 2020

van de Weg, Goof Sterk (author), Hegyi, A. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author)Freeway congestion can reduce the freeway throughput due to the capacity drop or due to blocking caused by spillback to upstream ramps. Research has shown that congestion can be reduced by the application of ramp metering and variable speed limits. Model predictive control is a promising strategy for the optimization of the ramp metering...journal article 2019

Portilla, C (author), Valencia, F (author), Espinosa, J (author), Nunez, Alfredo (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author)In this paper, a model predictive control approach for improving the efficiency of bicycling as part of intermodal transportation systems is proposed. Considering a dedicated bicycle lanes infrastructure, the focus in this paper is to optimize the dynamic interaction between bicycles and vehicles at the multimodal urban traffic intersections. In...journal article 2016

Nunez Vicencio, A.A. (author), Ocampo-Martinez, C. (author), Maestre, J.M. (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author)The Non-Centralized Model Predictive Control (NC-MPC) framework refers in this paper to any distributed, hierarchical, or decentralized model predictive controller (or a combination of them) the structure of which can change over time and the control actions of which are not obtained based on a centralized computation. Within this framework, we...journal article 2015
