  2. 21. 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

  4. 22. Architectures and Performance Analysis of Wireless Control Systems

    Author : Burak Demirel; Mikael Professor; Tamer Basar; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Networked control systems; wireless networks; optimal control; time-delays; packet losses; linear-quadratic control; supervisory control; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Modern industrial control systems use a multitude of spatially distributed sensors and actuators to continuously monitor and control physical processes. Information exchange among control system components is traditionally done through physical wires. READ MORE

  5. 23. 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

  6. 24. Data-Rich Multivariable Control of Heavy-Duty Engines

    Author : Maria Henningsson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Multivariable Control; Model Predictive Control; LQG Control; Virtual Sensing; System Identification; Diesel engines; HCCI engines; Dual-Fuel Combustion; Cylinder Pressure Sensors;

    Abstract : The combustion engine is today the dominant technology for transportation of goods and people world-wide. Concerns for global warming, toxic exhaust emissions, as well as cost and availability of fuel have in recent years created incentives for technological evolution of combustion engines. READ MORE

  7. 25. Fixed-Feedback SISO Adaptive Control

    Author : Magnus Nilsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Two-Degrees-of-Freedom Control; Feedforward Control; Adaptive Control;

    Abstract : Adaptive control is an attractive method to solve control problemssince the tedious task of identifying process behavior to find asuitable design for the controller is taken care of by the adaptivecontroller itself. It may be difficult, however, to guaranteerobustness (in the sense of desired disturbance attenuation andstability margins) for traditional adaptive schemes since theircorresponding loop gain is time varying.
