  1. 1. Enabling and Coercive Control : Coexistence in the Case of Banking

    Author : Cecilia Ekström; Tobias Johansson; Gabriella Wennblom; Magnus Hansson; Anders Hersinger; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Enabling control; coercive control; coexistence of control; attitudinal outcomes of control; management control; regulation; banking;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on subjects of control and attitudinal outcomes of formalized control in organizations. Previous research have concluded contradicting results of whether formalized control is positive or negative for the employees and propose that not only degree of formalization, but also type of formalization, can explain attitudinal outcomes.

  2. 2. Model-Based Vehicle Dynamics Control for Active Safety

    Author : Brad Schofield; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Control Allocation; Vehicle Dynamics Control; Friction Estimation; Model-Based Control Design;

    Abstract : The functionality of modern automotive vehicles is becoming increasingly dependent on control systems. Active safety is an area in which control systems play a pivotal role. Currently, rule-based control algorithms are widespread throughout the automotive industry. READ MORE

  3. 3. Gradient Methods for Large-Scale and Distributed Linear Quadratic Control

    Author : Karl Mårtensson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Large-Scale Control; Distributed Control; Linear Quadratic Gaussian Control; Gradient method; Controller Synthesis;

    Abstract : This thesis considers methods for synthesis of linear quadratic controllers for large-scale, interconnected systems. Conventional methods that solve the linear quadratic control problem are only applicable to systems with moderate size, due to the rapid increase in both computational time and memory requirements as the system size increases.

  4. 4. Wireless Control of Modular Multilevel Converter Submodules

    Author : Baris Ciftci; Hans-Peter Nee; Lennart Harnefors; Staffan Norrga; James Gross; Lars Kildehöj Rasmussen; Remus Teodorescu; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; 5G mobile communication; autonomous control; converter control; distributed control; electromagnetic interference; emerging technology; fault ride-through; modular multilevel converter MMC ; prototype; wireless control; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : The modular multilevel converter (MMC) has extensively been used in high-voltage, high-power applications such as high-voltage dc transmission systems and flexible alternating current transmission systems. The control of MMC submodules is conventionally realized using wired communication systems. READ MORE

  5. 5. 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.
