Comparison of different model predictive control (MPC) algorithms

open access: yes, 2013
[EN] The project objective is to develop a predictive control algorithm that is able to control systems in state space. To do the work we have proposed the control of an industrial distillation.

Review of recent trends of advancements in multilevel inverter topologies with reduced power switches and control techniques

open access: yesIET Power Electronics, EarlyView.
Some of the topologies with a fewer number of power switches are reviewed and scrutinized. An extensive analysis of the topologies, control strategy and applications are presented here, suggesting suitable multilevel inverter solutions to the known industrial application or new research.

Racial bias in criminal sentencing: Historical evidence from Chinese railway workers in British Columbia

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Economics/Revue canadienne d'économique, EarlyView.
Abstract Do discriminatory attitudes held in the public influence public institutions? We study this question within the context of the criminal justice system of historical British Columbia (BC). During the late 1870s and early 1880s, an influx of Chinese immigrant workers employed in the building of the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) was the catalyst

Hybrid closed‐loop insulin delivery improves glycaemic control compared with sensor‐augmented pump therapy: A meta‐analysis of ‘free‐living’ randomised trials in type 1 diabetes

open access: yesDiabetic Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Although hybrid closed‐loop systems (HCLS) and sensor‐augmented pump (SAP) therapy are advanced diabetes management technologies for type 1 diabetes, their relative efficacy in optimising glycaemic control is not fully established. This meta‐analysis evaluated the impact of HCLS versus SAP therapy on glucose regulation across multiple ...

Abiotic drivers of co‐occurrence and diversity patterns of Calopterygidae species in Amazonian protected freshwaters

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Species co‐occurrences rely on their ability to explore similar or distinct available resources, and possible niche overlap can prevent their presence and establishment in a given site Damselflies of the Calopterygidae family demonstrated negative co‐occurrences in streams inside and outside PAs, highlighting that their ecological similarity is ...

Fight song: variation in singing behaviour and song structure during natural agonistic interactions in a tropical songbird, Adelaide's Warbler (Setophaga adelaidae)

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Birds may use their singing behaviours and song structure as agonistic signals in territorial encounters. We conducted an observational study to test this hypothesis in male Adelaide's Warblers Setophaga adelaidae, a tropical songbird that defends a territory year‐round.

Heterogeneity in Imperfect Inflation Expectations: Theory and Evidence from a Novel Survey

open access: yesJournal of Money, Credit and Banking, EarlyView.
Abstract Using survey data from Germany, we study heterogeneity in how households form inflation expectations. We elicit (i) uncertainty in perceptions of current inflation and (ii) how persistent households perceive inflation to be. Combining these with standard survey questions on inflation, we infer laws of motion for expectations at the individual ...

Marginal Propensity to Consume and Personal Characteristics: Evidence from Bank Transaction Data and Survey

open access: yesJournal of Money, Credit and Banking, EarlyView.
Abstract The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is heterogeneous and depends on liquidity, while liquidity is affected by both temporary circumstances and persistent characteristics. Using bank account transaction data and a survey of its account holders, this study aims to distinguish the sources of MPC heterogeneity.
