  2. 21. Analysing the transient operation of the boiler and the TES tank for improving the flexibility in biomass CHP

    Author : Milan Zlatkovikj; Hailong Li; Lei Feng; Mälardalens universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; flexibility; combined heat and power CHP ; boiler; thermal energy storage TES ; feed-forward model predictive control FF MPC ; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Abstract : The uncertainty in the energy systems due to the continuously growing share of variable renewable energy sources (VRES) increases the requirements for flexibility. From the multiple mechanisms to improve flexibility, biomass-fired combined heat and power plants (CHPs) have gained attention due to their sustainability and high efficiency. READ MORE

  4. 22. The antagonistic role of activated oncogenes and apoptosis : studies of n-myc and p53 in lymphoid tumorigenesis

    Author : Yisong Wang; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : MPC; EmyN-myc transgene; J3D T Iymphoma cells; p53; v-m y cretrovirus; bcl-2; Gl cell cycle arrest; apoptosis; HPV 16 E7;

    Abstract : Inactivation of the p53 tumor suppressor gene and activation of proto-oncogenes have been implicated in the initiation and/or progression of a number of neoplasms. In this thesis, the involvement of N-myc gene activation has been studied in mouse plasmacytomagenesis and the role of wild-type (wt)p53 and oncogene activation has been evaluated with particular emphasis on apoptosis.

  5. 23. Interaction and Uncertainty-Aware Motion Planning for Autonomous Vehicles Using Model Predictive Control

    Author : Jian Zhou; Erik Frisk; Björn Olofsson; Jonas Fredriksson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Motion planning plays a significant role in enabling advances of autonomous vehicles in saving lives and improving traffic efficiency. In a predictive motion-planning strategy, the ego vehicle predicts the motion of surrounding vehicles and uses these predictions to plan collision-free reference trajectories. READ MORE

  6. 24. Nonlinear Model Predictive Control for Autonomous Vehicles

    Author : Paolo Falcone; Universita degli Studi del Sannio; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : In this thesis we consider the problem of designing and implementing Model Predictive Controllers (MPC) for stabilizing the dynamics of an autonomous ground vehicle. For such a class of systems, the non-linear dynamics and the fast sampling time limit the real-time implementation of MPC algorithms to local and linear operating regions. READ MORE

  7. 25. 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
