Integration of self-sensing control strategies in model predictive direct torque control of salient-pole permanent-magnet synchronous machine drives Universiteit Gent
Model predictive control and adaptive Kalman filter design for an underground coal gasification process Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The control of a nonlinear system such as an underground coal gasification (UCG) process is a challenging task. Several nonlinear design approaches are implemented to improve the tracking performance of the UCG process, however, the nonlinear techniques make implementation complex and computationally inefficient. In this work, a constrained linear model predictive control (MPC) is designed for the UCG process to track the desired trajectory of ...
A novel torque boundary-based model predictive torque control for PMSM without weighting factor Universiteit Gent
In this article, a novel torque boundary-based model predictive torque control (MPTC) is proposed to improve the torque and flux performance in permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives by straightforwardly reducing the corresponding ripples. For this purpose, an optimal sequential list of two voltage vectors is considered as candidate input and the time durations of the two vectors to be applied are determined based on a predefined ...
Fractional order distributed model predictive control of fast and strong interacting systems Universiteit Gent
Fast and strong interacting systems are hard to control from both performance and control effort points of view. Moreover, multiple objective functions or objectives with various identifiers of varying weights can hold unfeasible solutions at times. A novel cost objective function is proposed here to overcome both feasibility set limitations and computational burdens. An application example is used to illustrate its added value, which is a fast ...
Soft switching multiple model predictive control with overlapping cross-over time strategy in an industrial high speed pick and place application Universiteit Gent
In industrial machinery, position-controlled systems executing repetitive tasks are of significant importance. In such mechanisms, the load-side inertia and torque vary with the angular position of the driven axis, thus imposing a significant nonlinearity in the system dynamics. Linear controllers have a relatively low computational time, but are unable to achieve the required performance over the whole operating region. Nonlinear controllers, ...
Multiple-lane vehicle platooning based on a multi-agent distributed model predictive control strategy Universiteit Gent
Vehicle platooning became an interesting topic in the last years, many researchers and practitioners from the academia and industry trying to develop new theories and design appropriate control methods and communication methodologies in order to bring this concept as fast as possible on the roads. Since vehicles drive on multi-lane roads and highways, the subsequent paradigm was to treat vehicles as swarms, i. e., groups of vehicles that travel ...
