Fast sensitivity-based economic model predictive control for degenerate systems

State-estimation-based economic model predictive control of nonlinear systems

In this work, we focus on a class of nonlinear systems and design an estimator-based economic model predictive control (MPC) system which is capable of optimizing closed-loop performance with respect to general economic considerations taken into account in the construction of the cost function.Workingwith the class of full-state feedback linearizable nonlinear systems, we use a high-gain observ...

Fast Wavelet-Based Model Predictive Control of Differentially Flat Systems

A system is differentially flat if it is Lie–Bäcklund (L-B) equivalent to a free dynamical system that has dimensions equal to that of the input of the original system. Utilizing this equivalence, the problem of nonlinear model predictive control of a flat system can be reduced to a lower dimensional nonlinear programming problem with respect to the flat outputs. In this work, a novel computati...

Model Based Predictive Control for Linear Systems

POD-Based Economic Model Predictive Control for Heat-Convection Phenomena

In the setting of energy efficient building operation, an optimal boundary control problem governed by a linear parabolic advection-diffusion equation is considered together with bilateral control and state constraints. To keep the temperature in a prescribed range with the less possible heating cost, an economic model predictive control (MPC) strategy is applied. To speed-up the MPC method, a ...

Model Predictive Control-Based Fast Charging for Vehicular Batteries

Battery fast charging is one of the most significant and difficult techniques affecting the commercialization of electric vehicles (EVs). In this paper, we propose a fast charge framework based on model predictive control, with the aim of simultaneously reducing the charge duration, which represents the out-of-service time of vehicles, and the increase in temperature, which represents safety an...
