  1. 21. Improved Furnace Control : System identification and model predicative control of Outokumpu’s reheating furnace

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Signaler och system

    Author : Oscar Holmqvist; [2023]
    Keywords : Systeem Identification; Model Predictive Control;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates one option for improving the control of a reheating furnace used in heating steel slabs before hot rolling; an essential part of the steel manufacturing process. The furnace consumes a significant amount of energy, leading to high cost and high carbon dioxide emissions. READ MORE

  3. 22. Formation Control of UAVs for Positioning and Tracking of a Moving Target

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

    Author : Robert Carsk; Alexander Jeremic; [2023]
    Keywords : Autonomous; UAVs; Drones; Sensor Fusion; MPC; Filter; KF; EKF; Signal; Tracking; Formation; Controller; Control; MWSN; Optimal Control Problem; Optimization; Seeker Drone; Target Drone; Quadcopter Model; Simulation;

    Abstract : The potential of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for surveillance and military applications is significant — with continued technical advances in the field. The number of incidents where UAVs have intruded into unauthorized areas has increased in recent years and armed drones are commonly used in modern warfare. READ MORE

  4. 23. Control of an Over-Actuated Vehicle for Autonomous Driving and Energy Optimization : Development of a cascade controller to solve the control allocation problem in real-time on an autonomous driving vehicle

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Gianmarco Grandi; [2023]
    Keywords : LTV-MPC Linear Time-Varying Model Predictive Controller ; Trajectory following; Energy consumption; Vehicle stability; Vehicle model; Real-time performance; LTV-MPC Controllo a predizione del modello lineare tempo variabile ; Inseguimento di traiettoria; Consumo energetico; Stabilità del veicolo; Modello del veicolo; Prestazioni in tempo reale; LTV-MPC Linjär tidsvariabel modellförutsägande styrning ; spårföljning; energiförbrukning; fordonsstabilitet; fordonsmodell; prestanda i realtid;

    Abstract : An Over-Actuated (OA) vehicle is a system that presents more control variables than degrees of freedom. Therefore, more than one configuration of the control input can drive the system to a desired state in the state space, and this redundancy can be exploited to fulfill other tasks or solve further problems.

  5. 24. MPC for the Slow Orbit Feedback Control at MAX IV

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Emory Gassheld; My Karlsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The MAX IV synchrotron radiation facility in Lund is designed to produce bright and high-energy X-ray radiation. One important component of achieving this is to keep the electron beam inside the storage rings centered and stable. READ MORE

  6. 25. Application of Discrete Time High Order Control Barrier Functions for a prototype multi-spacecraft inspection of the ISS

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Gregorio Marchesini; [2023]
    Keywords : Space Robotics; Control Barrier Functions; Autonomous systems; Multi-agent systems;

    Abstract : In the past few years, the application of Control Barrier Functions (CBF) and High Order Control Barrier Functions (HOCBF) as a suitable framework to ensure safety for autonomous systems has attracted increasing interest. In particular, autonomous space systems are frequently subject to safety-critical constraints due to the high costs involved in manufacturing and launching. READ MORE
