This paper provides a detailed comparative study concerning the performance of min-projection strategy (MPS) and model predictive control (MPC) systems to control the three-phase grid connected converters. To do so, first, the converter is modeled as a switched linear system. Then, the feasibility of the MPS technique is investigated and its stability criterion is derived as a lower limit on th...

the control of car following is essential due to its safety and its operational efficiency. for this purpose, this paper builds a model of car following behavior based on armax structure from a real traffic dataset and design a model predictive control (mpc) system. based on the relative distance and relative acceleration of each instant, the mpc predicts the future behavior of the leader vehic...

Energy storage devices are expected to be more frequently implemented in wind farms in near future. In this paper, both pumped hydro and fly wheel storage systems are used to assist a wind farm to smooth the power fluctuations. Due to the significant difference in the response speeds of the two storages types, the wind farm coordination with two types of energy storage is a problem. This paper ...

This paper provides an overview of commercially available Model Predictive Control (MPC) technology, based primarily on data provided by MPC vendors. A brief history of industrial MPC technology is presented rst, followed by results of our vendor survey of MPC control and identiication technology. A general MPC control algorithm is presented, and approaches taken by each vendor for the diierent...

OBJECTIVES To measure the mutant prevention concentration (MPC) of ciprofloxacin for a set of urinary tract infection (UTI) Escherichia coli isolates with different levels of susceptibility and determine whether MPC can be predicted from MIC. METHODS MPC was defined as the lowest ciprofloxacin concentration that prevented the growth of resistant colonies when 10(10) bacteria were spread on so...

Machine Performance Check (MPC) is an automated and integrated image-based tool for verification of beam and geometric performance of the TrueBeam linac. The aims of the study were to evaluate the MPC beam performance tests against current daily quality assurance (QA) methods, to compare MPC performance against more accurate monthly QA tests and to test the sensitivity of MPC to changes in beam...
