  1. 1. 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

  2. 2. Internal Control : A Study of the Concept and Themes of Internal Control

    Author : Olof Arwinge; Fredrik Nilsson; Nils-Göran Olve; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Economic Information Systems; Ekonomiska informationssystem;

    Abstract : This thesis studies the accounting and auditing approach to control where the concept of internal control has developed along with the theory and practice of accounting and auditing and its stated objectives. In this context, internal control has traditionally been regarded as a means of ensuring financial reporting quality as well as a way of preventing and detecting fraudulent activity. READ MORE

  3. 3. Aging sensitive battery control

    Author : Malin Andersson; Mikael Johansson; Matteo Corno; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Lithium-ion battery; battery control; parameter identification; equivalent circuit model; Doyle-Fuller-Newman model; sensitivity analysis; optimal experiment design; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : The battery is a component with significant impact on both the cost and environmental footprint of a full electric vehicle (EV). Consequently, there is a strong motivation to maximize its degree of utilization. Usage limits are enforced by the battery management system (BMS) to ensure safe operation and limit battery degradation. READ MORE

  4. 4. Realising full-scale control in wastewater treatment systems using in situ nutrient sensors

    Author : Pernille Ingildsen; Industriell elektroteknik och automation; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; reglerteknik; robotteknik; Automatiska system; control engineering; Instrumentation; Wastewater treatment; Control; Full-scale plants; Control structures; Electronics and Electrical technology; Elektronik och elektroteknik; robotics; Automation; kontroll av utsläpp; pollution control; Miljöteknik; Environmental technology;

    Abstract : Abstract A major change in paradigm is taking place in the operation of wastewater treatment plants as automatic process control is becoming feasible. This change is due to a number of different reasons, not least the development of online nutrient sensors, which measure the key parameters in the biological nutrient removal processes, i.e. READ MORE

  5. 5. Control and Communication with Signal-to-Noise Ratio Constraints

    Author : Erik Johannesson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Real-time coding; SNR; Causal coding; AWN channel; AWGN channel; Remote source; Networked control; Control over channel; Convex optimization; Wiener filter;

    Abstract : This thesis is about two problems in the intersection of communication and control theory. Their common feature is that they involve communication over an additive white noise channel with a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) constraint. The first problem concerns the transmission of a real-valued signal from a partially observed Markov source. READ MORE
