  2. 2. Piecewise Linear Control Systems

    Author : Mikael Johansson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Piecewise quadratic functions; Linear matrix inequalities; Convex optimization; Optimal control; Performance analysis; Piecewise linear Lyapunov functions; Piecewise quadratic Lyapunov functions; Quadratic stability; Lyapunov stability; Piecewise linear systems; Nonlinear systems; Fuzzy systems; Hybrid systems.; Automation; robotics; control engineering; Automatiska system; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis treats analysis and design of piecewise linear control systems. Piecewise linear systems capture many of the most common nonlinearities in engineering systems, and they can also be used for approximation of other nonlinear systems. READ MORE

  3. 3. Sustainable Design and Control of Automated Material Handling Systems

    Author : Maziar Mashaei; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mixed integer leaner model.; CPN tool; Universal design framework; Sustainable production philosophy; Conceptual and detailed design phases; Automated material handling system; Pallet system; Synthesis and evaluation methods;

    Abstract : An automated material handling system is a collection of electro mechanical components, electronics, and computer-based devices that act together to maintain flow of parts and materials in a modern production environment. Material flow is a significant factor in the design of manufacturing plants. READ MORE
