Predictive Control of Structures [PDF]

Journal of Engineering Mechanics, 1987
Different continuous-time approches have been proposed in recent years to formulate active control algorithms to reduce the response of civil engineering structures under dynamic excitations. In this paper, a general formulation of a new discrete-time control methodology is presented and applied to structural control.

Inactivation of Single Strains of Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella Typhimurium Planktonic Cells Biofilms With Plasma Activated Liquids

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Recent research has proven the ability of cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) for assuring food safety. A more flexible and transportable alternative is the use of plasma activated liquids (PAL), which are also known to have antimicrobial properties.

Predictive Control Applied to a Single-Stage, Single-Phase Bidirectional AC-DC Converter

IEEE Access, 2022
This work aims to implement the control system of a single-phase, multi-port AC-DC converter with high-frequency isolation based on the dual active bridge (DAB) topology associated with the three-state switching cell (3SSC) applied to a distributed ...

Dual-Species Model Biofilm Consisting of Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella Typhimurium: Development and Inactivation With Cold Atmospheric Plasma (CAP)

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Most environmental biofilms contain a variety of species. These species can establish cooperative and competitive interactions, possibly resulting in an increase or a decrease in antimicrobial resistance.

A Differential Flatness-Based Model Predictive Control Strategy for a Nonlinear Quarter-Car Active Suspension System

Mathematics, 2023
Controlling an automotive suspension system using an actuator is a complex nonlinear problem that requires both fast and precise solutions in order to achieve optimal performance.

Comparison and Interpretation Methods for Predictive Control of Mechanics

Algorithms, 2019
Objects that possess mass (e.g., automobiles, manufactured items, etc.) translationally accelerate in direct proportion to the force applied scaled by the object’s mass in accordance with Newton’s Law, while the rotational companion is Euler&#

Information needs and experiences from pregnancies complicated by hypertensive disorders: a qualitative analysis of narrative responses

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth, 2021
Background Incorporation of the patient voice is urgently needed in a broad array of health care settings, but it is particularly lacking in the obstetrical literature.

Model Predictive Control, Cost Controllability, and Homogeneity [PDF]

SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization, 2020
We are concerned with the design of Model Predictive Control (MPC) schemes such that asymptotic stability of the resulting closed loop is guaranteed even if the linearization at the desired set point fails to be stabilizable. Therefore, we propose to construct the stage cost based on the homogeneous approximation and rigorously show that applying MPC ...

Interval Model Predictive Control [PDF]

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 2000
Model Predictive Control is one of the most popular control strategy in the process industry. One of the reason for this success can be attributed to the fact that constraints and uncertainties can be handled. There are many techniques based on interval mathematics that are used in a wide range of applications.
