A Simple and Efficient Algorithm for Nonlinear Model Predictive Control

open access: yes, 2017
We present PANOC, a new algorithm for solving optimal control problems arising in nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC). A usual approach to this type of problems is sequential quadratic programming (SQP), which requires the solution of a quadratic ...

Numerical solution of optimal control problems with constant control delays [PDF]

open access: yes
We investigate a class of optimal control problems that exhibit constant exogenously given delays in the control in the equation of motion of the differential states.

Investigating Multiple Solutions in the Constrained Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model

open access: yes, 2014
Recent work has shown that the Constrained Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (CMSSM) can possess several distinct solutions for certain values of its parameters.

Global Optimization of N-Maneuver, High-Thrust Trajectories Using Direct Multiple Shooting [PDF]

open access: yes
The performance of impulsive, gravity-assist trajectories often improves with the inclusion of one or more maneuvers between flybys. However, grid-based scans over the entire design space can become computationally intractable for even one deep-space ...

Tree of Life Synagogue Shooting in Pittsburgh: Preparedness, Prehospital Care, and Lessons Learned [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
On Saturday, October 27, 2018, a man with anti-Semitic motivations entered Tree of Life synagogue in the Squirrel Hill section of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; he had an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle and three handguns, opening fire upon worshippers. Eventually

Estimating the efficiency of different explants for directin Vitromultiple shoots development in chrysanthemum

open access: yesInternational Journal of Agriculture, Environment and Biotechnology, 2016
Different explants of local chrysanthemum cultivars available in West Bengal including leaf, shoot tip and ray floret were employed to compare their efficiency for direct in vitro regeneration system. The explants were inoculated in Murashige and Skoog (MS) media supplemented with varied combinations of indole acetic acid (IAA), benzylaminopurine (BAP).

A Numerical Slow Manifold Approach to Model Reduction for Optimal Control of Multiple Time Scale ODE [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Time scale separation is a natural property of many control systems that can be ex- ploited, theoretically and numerically. We present a numerical scheme to solve optimal control problems with considerable time scale separation that is based on a model ...

The Police Response to Active Shooter Incidents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
There have been many active shooter incidents in the United States since Columbine, and police agencies continue to modify their policies and training to reflect the lessons that are learned from each new tragedy.
