  1. 16. Extremum Seeking Control : Stability, Accuracy, and Applications

    Author : Khalid Atta; Ying Tan; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reglerteknik; Control Engineering;

    Abstract : In many applications, there is a variable that indicates the overall performance and that must be maximized, such as the output of a hydro power turbine or a mineral processing plant, or that must be minimized, such as CO2 emissions or the consumption of resources. Extremization of this variable (maximization or minimization) through adjusting the influencing manipulated variables is occasionally required without prior knowledge of the optimal values of the manipulated variables or of the optimized variable.

  2. 17. Externally positive systems : Analysis and control based on combinatorial polynomials

    Author : Liam Hamed Taghavian; Mikael Johansson; Cristian R. Rojas; Fabio Pasqualetti; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Linear systems; External positivity; Optimization; Non-overshooting control; Combinatorics; Complete monotonicity; Majorization.; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Monotonic tracking is required in many control systems, including those that cannot tolerate any overshoots and undershoots in their closed-loop responses. Classical examples are found in vehicle cruise control and liquid tank level control. READ MORE

  3. 18. Batch Control and Diagnosis

    Author : Rasmus Olsson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Multivariate Statistical Analysis; State and Parameter Estimation; Dynamic Models; Fault Detection; Exception Handling; Recipe; S88; Batch Control; PCA; Automation; robotics; control engineering; Automatiska system; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

    Abstract : Batch processes are becoming more and more important in the chemical process industry, where they are used in the manufacture of specialty materials, which often are highly profitable. Some examples where batch processes are important are the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals, polymers, and semiconductors. READ MORE

  4. 19. Piecewise Linear Control Systems

    Author : Mikael Johansson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Piecewise quadratic functions; Linear matrix inequalities; Convex optimization; Optimal control; Performance analysis; Piecewise linear Lyapunov functions; Piecewise quadratic Lyapunov functions; Quadratic stability; Lyapunov stability; Piecewise linear systems; Nonlinear systems; Fuzzy systems; Hybrid systems.; Automation; robotics; control engineering; Automatiska system; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis treats analysis and design of piecewise linear control systems. Piecewise linear systems capture many of the most common nonlinearities in engineering systems, and they can also be used for approximation of other nonlinear systems. READ MORE

  5. 20. Power System Oscillations - Detection, Estimation and Control

    Author : Morten Hemmingsson; Industriell elektroteknik och automation; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Elektroteknik; oscillation; power system; damping; power swing; distance protection; detection; estimation; real-time; reactive co-variation; control; Electrical engineering; load modulation; Automation; robotics; control engineering; Automatiska system; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

    Abstract : The topic of this thesis is the electro-mechanical oscillations which to some extent always are present in a power system. The demand of electric power is ever increasing. At the same time, the tolerance of disruptions in the power supply is decreasing. READ MORE
