This paper presents a port-Hamiltonian formulation of hysteretic energy storage elements. First, we revisit the passivity property of backlash-driven storage elements by presenting a family of storage functions associated to the…
This work proposes a novel cooperative transportation framework for multi-agent systems that does not require any prior knowledge of cargo locations or sizes. Each agent relies on local sensing to detect cargos, recruit nearby agents, and…
This paper considers the constrained sampling multi-stream quickest change detection problem, also known as the bandit quickest change detection problem. One stream contains a change-point that shifts its mean by an unknown amount. The goal…
Finding clear economic signals for distribution-network operation and expansion is increasingly important as single-phase loads and distributed energy resources escalate. These devices create phase-to-phase imbalances that manifest as…
Data centers are facilities housing computing infrastructure for processing and storing digital information. The rapid expansion of artificial intelligence is driving unprecedented growth in data center capacity, with global electricity…
This paper presents a novel coverage control algorithm for multi-agent systems, where each agent has no prior knowledge of the specific region to be covered. The proposed method enables agents to autonomously detect the target area and…
This paper proposes a distributed diagnosis scheme to detect and estimate actuator and power line faults in DC microgrids (e.g., electric-vehicle charging microgrids) subject to unknown power loads and stochastic noise. To address actuator…
Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) read neural signals directly from the brain to infer motor planning and execution. However, the implementation of this technology has been largely limited to laboratory settings, with few real-world…
Most existing phase balancing and topology reconfiguration problems are formulated as mixed-integer optimization problems that depend on network topologies~\cite{10098964,11017695,10571996}. However, these topologies are often inaccurate…
Distributed aggregative optimization underpins many cooperative optimization and multi-agent control systems, where each agent's objective function depends both on its local optimization variable and an aggregate of all agents' optimization…
Build systems become an indispensable part of the software implementation and deployment process. New programming languages are released with the build system integrated into the language tools, for example, Go, Rust, or Zig. However, in…
Tropical cyclones (TCs) are highly dynamic natural disasters that travel vast distances and occupy a large spatial scale, leading to loss of life, economic strife, and destruction of infrastructure. The severe impact of TCs makes them…
We consider the problem of stabilizing an undisturbed, scalar, linear system over a "timing" channel, namely a channel where information is communicated through the timestamps of the transmitted symbols. Each symbol transmitted from a…
Reactive sputtering is a plasma-based technique to deposit a thin film on a substrate. This contribution presents a novel parameter-interval estimation method for a well-established model that describes the uncertain and nonlinear reactive…
This paper proposes a physics-informed learning framework for a class of recurrent neural networks tailored to large-scale and networked systems. The approach aims to learn control-oriented models that preserve the structural and stability…
This paper investigates a smart spectrum-sharing framework for reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-aided local high-quality wireless networks (LHQWNs) within a mobile network operator (MNO) ecosystem. Although RISs are often considered…
In scenarios where synchronous generators (SGs) and grid-following renewable energy sources (GFLR) are co-located, existing research, which mainly focuses on the first-swing stability of SGs, often overlooks ongoing dynamic interactions…
While conventional power system protection isolates faulty components only after a fault has occurred, fault prediction approaches try to detect faults before they can cause significant damage. Although initial studies have demonstrated…
Deploying synchronous condensers (SynCons) near grid-following renewable energy sources (GFLRs) is an effective and increasingly adopted strategy for grid support. However, the potential transient instability risks in such configurations…
In traditional views, the build-up of accelerating energy during faults can cause the well-known first-swing angle instability in synchronous generators (SGs). Interestingly, this letter presents a new insight that the accumulation of…
