Tuning of NMPC controllers via multi-objective optimisation

Multi-Objective Optimisation of Restricted Complexity Controllers

Restricted complexity controller design for the active suspension benchmark problem [1] is considered. The control design specifications of the benchmark is firstly recast into a mixed H∞/l1 optimisation problem, which is solved via a convex optimisation approach. A globally optimal Pareto curve is produced via the optimisation. It presents the limits of performance and is served as a reference...

Towards Multi-decision-maker Requirements Prioritisation via Multi-Objective Optimisation

Requirements prioritisation is a key decision making activity of the software development process, which relies on the capability of different decision-makers to identify the optimal candidate rankings of the requirements, in order to be able to perform a strategic choice among them. In this paper, we formulate such multi-decision-maker requirements prioritisation as a multi-objective optimisat...

Coupler-curve synthesis via multi-objective optimisation using NSGA-II

This paper presents a study of a classical mechanism synthesis problem in the framework of multi-objective optimisation. In addition to the primary kinematic objective of reducing the structural error, staying away from the singular configurations is considered as a secondary objective. Two wellstudied coupler-curve synthesis problems reported in existing literature are revisited for the purpos...

Multi-objective Binary Search Optimisation

Multi-objective optimisation of asset maintenance management

Asset managers are faced with the necessity to reduce total life-cycle costs of their facilities as well as to improve their physical condition and long-term performance while considering the relative consequences of their failure. This paper presents a systematic decision-making approach for asset maintenance management that combines a stochastic Markovian performance prediction model with a m...
