Using principles from finite-time thermodynamics, this paper introduces a class of bilinear models suitable for financial optimization and risk management of commodity energy conversion processes. This class of high-level models is intended to predic

In this paper, a “third generation” benchmark problem that focuses on the control of wind excited response of a tall building, using the Model Predictive Control (MPC) scheme, is presented. A 76 story, 306 m tall concrete office tower proposed fo

Model predictive control is applied to batch recipe synthesis scheduling problems. Due to the complexity of this class of problems, a state explosion situation exists where an exponential number of possible combinations of tasks exist in the solution

This paper presents a general formulation of the model predictive control ~MPC! scheme with special reference to accelera- tion feedback in structural control under earthquakes. The MPC scheme is based on a prediction model of the system response to

Semi-active systems are attractive for structural control applications because they offer some of the best features of both passive and active systems. This paper examines a passive tuned liquid column damper which is converted into a variable-dampin

This paper presents a general formulation of the model predictive control (MPC) scheme for controlling in real time the response of structures under earthquakes. The MPC scheme is based on an explicit use of a prediction model of the system response

The paper presents a new design for a robust output observer and demonstrates that it can be used to detect sensor faults in uncertain systems with output disturbances. The time-domain design uses an l ∞ technique to minimize a norm of the estimati

An l∞ approach to the design of linear multivariable controllers for descrete-time systems with hard time-domain constraints is presented. The notion of polar of the set of the exogenous inputs is used to parameterize the set of closed-loop transfe

We propose an MPC algorithm with desirable stability and constraint-handling properties, yet which retains computational simplicity. The closed-loop stability and constraint-handling are achieved by formulating an infinite-horizon objective and then
