2. 1. Model Predictive Control for Cooperative Rendezvous of Autonomous Unmanned Vehicles

   Author : Linnea Persson; Bo Wahlberg; Jonathan How; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Autonomous systems; Model Predictive Control; MPC; Autonomous landing; UAV; Unmanned Aerial Vehicle; Moving target; Quadcopter; Implementation; Variable Horizon MPC; Adaptive Horizon MPC; Autonom landning; Modell-prediktiv reglerteknik; quadcopter; autonoma system; MPC; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Abstract : This thesis investigates cooperative maneuvers for aerial vehicles autonomously landing on moving platforms. The objective has been to develop methods for safely performing such landings on real systems subject to a variety of disturbances, as well as physical and computational constraints. READ MORE

4. 2. Look-ahead control for fuel-efficient and safe heavy-duty vehicle platooning

   Author : Valerio Turri; Karl H. Johansson; Petros Ioannou; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; platoon; platooning; optimization; optimal control; model predictive control; automatic control; fuel efficiency; intelligent transport systems; automated driving; cooperative; dynamic programming; trucks; heavy-duty vehicles; safe platooning; fuel-efficient platooning; distributed model predictive control; MPC; vehicle-following; pulse and glide; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

   Abstract : The operation of heavy-duty vehicles at small inter-vehicular distances, known as platoons, lowers the aerodynamic drag and, therefore, reduces fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Tests conducted on flat roads have shown the potential of platooning to reduce the fuel consumption of about 10%. READ MORE

5. 3. Model Predictive Control in Flight Control Design : Stability and Reference Tracking

   Author : Daniel Simon; Johan Löfberg; Sébastien Gros; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Model Predictive Control;

   Abstract : Aircraft are dynamic systems that naturally contain a variety of constraints and nonlinearities such as, e.g., maximum permissible load factor, angle of attack and control surface deflections. READ MORE

6. 4. 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

7. 5. Linear Model Predictive Control : Stability and Robustness

   Author : Johan Löfberg; Lennart Ljung; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : Most real systems are subjected to constraints, both on the available control effort and the controlled variables. Classical linear feedback is in some cases not enough for such systems. This has motivated the development of a more complicated, nonlinear controller, called model predictive control, MPC. READ MORE
