  2. 6. On Modeling and Control of Flexible Manipulators

    Author : Stig Moberg; Svante Gunnarsson; Anders Robertsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; System identification; multivariable systems; differential-algebraic equations; robots; manipulators; flexible structures; robustness; position control; nonlinear systems; closed-loop identification; frequency-response methods; industrial robots; robotics; control; feedforward; flexible arms; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

    Abstract : Industrial robot manipulators are general-purpose machines used for industrial automation in order to increase productivity, flexibility, and quality. Other reasons for using industrial robots are cost saving, and elimination of heavy and health-hazardous work. READ MORE

  4. 7. Look-ahead Control of Heavy Vehicles

    Author : Erik Hellström; Lars Nielsen; Jan Åslund; Lino Guzzella; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; automotive control; dynamic programming; predictive control; fuel-optimal control; long haulage truck; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Information technology; Informationsteknik; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

    Abstract : Trucks are responsible for the major part of inland freight and so, they are a backbone of the modern economy but they are also a large consumer of energy. In this context, a dominating vehicle is a truck with heavy load on a long trip. READ MORE

  5. 8. Stochastic Event-Based Control and Estimation

    Author : Toivo Henningsson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; event-based control; event-based estimation; sporadic control; stochastic control; stochastic hybrid systems; sum-of-squares methods; control over networks; quantized measurements;

    Abstract : Digital controllers are traditionally implemented using periodic sampling, computation, and actuation events. As more control systems are implemented to share limited network and CPU bandwidth with other tasks, it is becoming increasingly attractive to use some form of event-based control instead, where precious events are used only when needed.

  6. 9. Modeling and Control of Flexible Manipulators

    Author : Stig Moberg; Svante Gunnarsson; Bruno Siciliano; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Modeling; identification; control; robot manipulator; DAE; flexible multibody dynamics; inverse dynamics; benchmark; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

    Abstract : Industrial robot manipulators are general-purpose machines used for industrial automation in order to increase productivity, flexibility, and product quality. Other reasons for using industrial robots are cost saving, and elimination of hazardous and unpleasant work. READ MORE

  7. 10. Optimal and Resilient Control with Applications in Smart Distribution Grids

    Author : Kaveh Paridari; Henrik Sandberg; De Persis Claudio; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Resilient Control; Robust Control; Optimal Control; Smart Distribution Grid; Industrial Control Systems; Microgrids; Demand Response; Energy; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : The electric power industry and society are facing the challenges and opportunities of transforming the present power grid into a smart grid. To meetthese challenges, new types of control systems are connected over IT infrastructures. READ MORE
