    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; automation; electrified propulsion; long combination vehicles; electromobility; propulsion system tailoring; automated driving systems; optimal control; single-track and two-track vehicle models; predictive energy management and vehicle stability; motion control; longer heavier vehicles; vehicle stability; optimal energy management; total cost of ownership; optimization; transportation mission; heterogeneous heavy vehicle fleet; fleet sizing;

    Abstract : This thesis proposes methodologies to improve heavy vehicle design by reducing the total cost of ownership and by increasing energy efficiency and safety. Environmental issues, consumers expectations and the growing demand for freight transport have created a competitive environment in providing better transportation solutions. READ MORE

  4. 42. Distributed Optimization and Control : Primal--Dual, Online, and Event-Triggered Algorithms

    Author : Xinlei Yi; Karl H. Johansson; Dimos V. Dimarogonas; John S. Baras; Antonis Papachristodoulou; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Distributed nonconvex optimization; distributed online convex optimization; distributed event-triggered control; primal-dual algorithm; stochastic gradient descent; zeroth-order algorithm; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : In distributed optimization and control, each network node performs local computation based on its own information and information received from its neighbors through a communication network to achieve a global objective. Although many distributed optimization and control algorithms have been proposed, core theoretical problems with important practical relevance remain. READ MORE

  5. 43. Optimal Decisions with Limited Information

    Author : Ather Gattami; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; systems; numerical analysis; Computer science; Convex Optimization; Graph Theory; Team Decision Theory; Game Theory; control; Datalogi; numerisk analys; system; kontroll; Automation; robotics; control engineering; Automatiska system; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis considers static and dynamic team decision problems in both stochastic and deterministic settings. The team problem is a cooperative game, where a number of players make up a team that tries to optimize a given cost induced by the uncertainty of nature. READ MORE

  6. 44. Gain-Scheduled Controller Design

    Author : Adrian Ilka; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Guaranteed cost control; Gain-scheduled control; Bellman-Lyapunov function; Lyapunov theory of stability; Robust control; Input output constraints; LPV system;

    Abstract : This thesis is devoted to controller synthesis, i.e. to finding a systematic procedure to determine the optimal (sub-optimal) controller parameters which guarantees the closed-loop stability and guaranteed cost for uncertain nonlinear systems with considering input/output constraints, all this without on-line optimization.
