Applications Oriented Optimal Input Design for MPC: An analysis of a quadruple water tank process [PDF]

, 2013
Model predictive control (MPC) makes use of a model of the system, therefore performances are highly dependent on the accuracy of the model chosen. Applications oriented optimal input design enables optimization of the system identification experiments ...

Optimal Design of Capsule Transporting Pipeline carrying Spherical Capsules [PDF]

, 2012
A capsule pipeline transports material or cargo in capsules propelled by fluid flowing through a pipeline. The cargo may either be contained in capsules (such as wheat enclosed inside sealed cylindrical containers), or may itself be the capsules (such as

Optimal designs for dose finding experiments in toxicity studies [PDF]

We construct optimal designs for estimating fetal malformation rate, prenatal death rate and an overall toxicity index in a toxicology study under a broad range of model assumptions.

On optimal designs for nonlinear models: a general and efficient algorithm

, 2013
Deriving optimal designs for nonlinear models is challenging in general. Although some recent results allow us to focus on a simple subclass of designs for most problems, deriving a specific optimal design mainly depends on algorithmic approaches.

Optimal designs for indirect regression [PDF]

, 2004
In many real life applications, it is impossible to observe the feature of interest directly. For example, scientists in Materials Science may be interested in detecting cracks inside objects, not visible from the outside. Similarly, non-invasive medical

Bayesian sequential D-D optimal model-robust designs. [PDF]

Alphabetic optimal design theory assumes that the model for which the optimal design is derived is usually known. However in real-life applications, this assumption may not be credible, as models are rarely known in advance.

Performance Enhancement of Seismically Protected Buildings Using Viscoelastic Tuned Inerter Damper

Actuators
In this paper, a viscoelastic (VE) tuned inerter damper (TID) that replaces conventional stiffness and damping elements with a cost-effective VE element is proposed to achieve a target-based improvement of seismically protected buildings.

A geometric characterization of c-optimal designs for heteroscedastic regression [PDF]

We consider the common nonlinear regression model where the variance as well as the mean is a parametric function of the explanatory variables. The c-optimal design problem is investigated in the case when the parameters of both the mean and the variance

Nonparametric time trends in optimal design of experiments. [PDF]

When performing an experiment, the observed responses are often influenced by a temporal trend due to aging of material, learning effects, equipment wear-out, warm-up effects, etc. The construction of run orders that are optimally balanced for time trend
