  1. 21. Look-ahead control for fuel-efficient and safe heavy-duty vehicle platooning

    Författare :Valerio Turri; Karl H. Johansson; Petros Ioannou; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; platoon; platooning; optimization; optimal control; model predictive control; automatic control; fuel efficiency; intelligent transport systems; automated driving; cooperative; dynamic programming; trucks; heavy-duty vehicles; safe platooning; fuel-efficient platooning; distributed model predictive control; MPC; vehicle-following; pulse and glide; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The operation of heavy-duty vehicles at small inter-vehicular distances, known as platoons, lowers the aerodynamic drag and, therefore, reduces fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Tests conducted on flat roads have shown the potential of platooning to reduce the fuel consumption of about 10%. LÄS MER

  2. 22. On robust and optimal control : with real time aspects

    Författare :Torbjörn Norlander; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reglerteknik; Control Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with several issues in realistic design of control systems, both from a practical and a theoretical point of view. This is done in three papers which are preceded by an introduction and a short discussion on future research on time-varying delays. The first paper discusses the importance of reliable sensors in control systems. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Reinforcement Learning and Optimal Adaptive Control for Structured Dynamical Systems

    Författare :Damianos Tranos; Alexandre Proutiere; Pontus Giselsson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reinforcement Learning; Adaptive Control; Dynamical Systems; Control Theory; Control Engineering; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, we study the related problems of reinforcement learning and optimal adaptive control, specialized to specific classes of stochastic and structured dynamical systems. By stochastic, we mean systems that are unknown to the decision maker and evolve according to some probabilistic law. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Optimal Decisions with Limited Information

    Författare :Ather Gattami; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; systems; numerical analysis; Computer science; Convex Optimization; Graph Theory; Team Decision Theory; Game Theory; control; Datalogi; numerisk analys; system; kontroll; Automation; robotics; control engineering; Automatiska system; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis considers static and dynamic team decision problems in both stochastic and deterministic settings. The team problem is a cooperative game, where a number of players make up a team that tries to optimize a given cost induced by the uncertainty of nature. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Modeling, Control and Optimization of a Plate Reactor

    Författare :Staffan Haugwitz; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; mid-ranging control; transition control; start-up; exothermic reaction; chemical reactor; modeling; process control; optimization; Automation; robotics; control engineering; Automatiska system; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

    Sammanfattning : A new chemical reactor, the Alfa Laval Plate Reactor, is being developed by Alfa Laval, a Swedish world-leading heat exchanger company. The plate reactor combines the high-heat-transfer capabilities of plate heat exchangers with the efficient mixing and reaction control typical of microreactors. LÄS MER
