While Model Predictive Control (MPC) is a promising approach for network-wide control of urban traffic, the computational complexity of the, often nonlinear, online optimization procedure is too high for real-time implementations. In order to make MPC computationally efficient, this paper introduces a parameterized MPC (PMPC) approach for...

With increased developments and interest in cooperative driving and higher levels of automation (SAE level 3+), the need for safety systems that are capable to monitor system health and maintain safe operations in faulty scenarios is increasing. A variety of faults or failures could occur, and there exists a high variety of ways to respond to...

This paper presents a switched linear system representation of water canal dynamics to incorporate different operating modes, which arise due to the occurrence of extreme weather phenomena such as flooding and drought episodes. To guarantee the stability during mode switching, a proper analysis on permanence regions-given by a collection of...

This study proposes the application of a Lyapunov-based Model Predictive Control (L-MPC) approach to a 9-level Crossover Switches Cell (CSC9) converter operating in grid connection mode. The proposed method utilizes the structure of the classical finite-control-set MPC (FCS-MPC) technique while integrating a cost function that requires no tuning...

This thesis provides a set of cooperative control schemes for autonomous multi-vessel systems to manipulate a floating object through physical interconnections in onshore (inland waterways and ports) and offshore areas. Thanks to the maturity and popularity of the advancing technologies in information, communication, sensors, automatic control,...

This paper presents a rule-compliant trajectory optimization method for the guidance and control of autonomous surface vessels. The method builds on Model Predictive Contouring Control and incorporates the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea - known as COLREGs - relevant for motion planning. We use these traffic rules...

The successful integration of autonomous robots in real-world environments strongly depends on their ability to reason from context and take socially acceptable actions. Current autonomous navigation systems mainly rely on geometric information and hard-coded rules to induce safe and socially compliant behaviors. Yet, in unstructured urban...

The radar resource management problem in a multi-target tracking scenario is considered. Partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) are used to describe each tracking task. Model predictive control is applied to solve the POMDPs in a non-myopic way. As a result, the computational complexity compared to stochastic optimization...

POLDERS are low-lying and artificially drained areas surrounded bywater storage canals. In low-lying delta areas such as theMississippi delta in Louisiana (USA), the Ganges-Brahmaputra delta (Bangladesh), or the Rhine-Meuse delta (The Netherlands), polders experience surface water salinization problem due to saline groundwater exfiltration,...

This paper proposes three different formulations of a centralized Model Predictive Control framework to manage the logistics of continuous-flow Supply Chains subject to fluctuating demand. The Supply Chain is modeled as a dynamical system composed of several players handling commodities from the production phase to the retail phase....

This paper presents the application of Hierarchical Model Predictive Control (HMPC) as an energy management framework for a multi-timescale mixed-energy system, i.e., Power-to-X (PtX). The goal of the energy managing controller is to minimize an economic objective by determining the energy flows within the system. HMPC enables a long-term...

The high level of uncertainty of renewable energy sources generation creates differences between electricity supply and demand, endangering the reliable operation of the power system. Demand response has gained significant attention as a means to cope with uncertainty of renewable energy sources. Demand response of residential and service...

Since several decades anti-lock braking systems rely on rule-based control strategies. Extensive literature review highlighted the possibility that significant improvements could be achieved if ABS controllers were redesigned taking advantage of the technological improvements achieved in the last decade. This work aims to verify this...

Managing a multi-reservoir system is complicated, due to conflicting interests among various objectives. This study proposes an optimization-based approach for the operations of a multi-reservoir system. An advanced real-time control technique, Model Predictive Control (MPC), is adopted to control a multi-reservoir system with two control...

In this paper, we present an implementation of a model predictive controller (MPC) for wind farm power tracking problem. The controller is evaluated in the high-fidelity PAral-lelized Large-eddy simulation Model (PALM). By taking measurements from PALM, we show that the closed-loop MPC can provide power reference tracking while reducing force...

More than 35% of the world’s population live within 100 km of the coast. Groundwater resources in these areas are the main source for domestic, industrial and agricultural use. Worldwide, deltaic areas are under stress due to climate change, sea level increase and decrease in fresh water availability. In addition, in deltaic coastal areas around...

Water is needed everywhere to satisfy domestic, agricultural and industrial water demands, to maintain navigation systems, and to preserve healthy and sustainable ecosystems. In order to protect us from floods and to reallocate water resources in a man-made environment, the 'hardware', water-related structures, is constructed in many water...

Water systems consist of natural and man-made objects serving multiple essential purposes. They are affected by many types of meteorological disturbances. In order to deal with these disturbances and to serve the desired objectives, infrastructures have been built and managed by societies for specific purposes. Given a water system, and its...
