Advanced-step Multistage Nonlinear Model Predictive Control

Advanced-multi-step Nonlinear Model Predictive Control

Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) has gained wide attention through the application of dynamic optimization. However, this approach is susceptible to computational delay, especially if the optimization problem cannot be solved within one sampling time. In this paper we propose an advanced-multi-step NMPC (amsNMPC) method based on nonlinear programming (NLP) and NLP sensitivity. This met...

Advanced-Multi-Step and Economically Oriented Nonlinear Model Predictive Control

This dissertation addresses two issues that arise in the field of Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC): computational delay and stability of economically oriented NMPC. NMPC has gained wide attention through the application of dynamic optimization. It has the ability to handle variable bounds and multi-input-multi-output systems. However, computational delay caused by large size of nonline...

Improved Optimization Process for Nonlinear Model Predictive Control of PMSM

Model-based predictive control (MPC) is one of the most efficient techniques that is widely used in industrial applications. In such controllers, increasing the prediction horizon results in better selection of the optimal control signal sequence. On the other hand, increasing the prediction horizon increase the computational time of the optimization process which make it impossible to be imple...

Nonparametric Nonlinear Model Predictive Control

−Model Predictive Control (MPC) has recently found wide acceptance in industrial applications, but its potential has been much impeded by linear models due to the lack of a similarly accepted nonlinear modeling or databased technique. Aimed at solving this problem, the paper addresses three issues: (i) extending second-order Volterra nonlinear MPC (NMPC) to higher-order for improved prediction ...
