2. 1. Adaptive Lateral Model Predictive Control for Autonomous Driving of Heavy-Duty Vehicles

   Author : Goncalo Collares Pereira; Jonas Mårtensson; Bo Wahlberg; Henrik Pettersson; Daniel Axehill; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Model Predictive Control; Control Stability; Experimental Evaluation; Fleet Evaluation; Adaptive Control; Automatic Control; Autonomous Vehicles; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Abstract : Autonomous Vehicle (AV) technology promises safer, greener, and more efficient means of transportation for everyone. AVs are expected to have their first big impact in closed environments, such as mining areas, ports, and construction sites, where Heavy-Duty Vehicles (HDVs) operate. READ MORE

4. 2. Distributed Control for Spatio-Temporally Constrained Systems

   Author : Adrian Wiltz; Dimos V. Dimarogonas; Jonas Mårtensson; Matthias Müller; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; distributed model predictive control; control barrier functions; spatio-temporal constraints; constrained control; multiagent systems; distribuerad modell prediktiv styrning; kontrollbarriärfunktion; tillstånds-temporala begränsningar; begränsade system; multiagentsystem;

   Abstract : In this thesis, we develop methods leading towards the distributed control of spatio-temporally constrained systems. Overall, we focus on two different approaches: a model predictive control approach and an approach based on ensuring set-invariance via control barrier functions. READ MORE

5. 3. Partitioning and Control for Dynamical Systems Evolving on Manifolds

   Author : Xiao Tan; Dimos V. Dimarogonas; James D. Biggs; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Partitioning and control; Transition system; Geometric control; Barrier functions; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Abstract : With the development and integration of cyber-physical and safety-critical systems, control systems are expected to achieve tasks that include logic rules, receptive decision-making, safety constraints, and so forth. For example, in a persistent surveillance application, an unmanned aerial vehicle might be required to "take photos of areas A and B infinitely often, always avoid unsafe region C, and return to the charging point when the battery level goes low.

6. 4. Towards Improved Control of TMP Refining Processes

   Author : Karin Eriksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; control; dynamic modeling; process limitations; simplified decoupling; Refiner; refining zone temperature; internal interconnections;

   Abstract : The need for improved energy usage has become a key issue in all industrial sectors. In the energy demanding production of mechanical pulps many efforts havefocused on design development, but regarding control of refiners, there is still a potential for improvements. READ MORE

7. 5. Iterative Learning Control : Analysis, Design, and Experiments

   Author : Mikael Norrlöf; Svante Gunnarsson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industrial robots; Robot programming; Robot modeling;

   Abstract : In many industrial robot applications it is a fact that the robot is programmed to do the same task repeatedly. By observing the control error in the different iterations of the same task it becomes clear that it is actually highly repetitive. READ MORE
