This work addresses the problem of constrained motion control of the uncrewed surface vessels. The constraints are imposed on states/inputs of the vehicles due to the physical limitations, mission requirements, and safety considerations. We…

The optimal controller design problem for a linear, first-order spatially-invariant distributed parameter system is considered. Through a case study of the Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) problem for the diffusion equation over the torus,…

We consider an automatic overload control for two large service systems modeled as multi-server queues, such as call centers. We assume that the two systems are designed to operate independently, but want to help each other respond to…

Navigating dense, lane-less traffic remains one of the most challenging scenarios for autonomous vehicles, especially in emerging regions where road structure and driver behavior are highly unpredictable. This paper presents a hybrid…

Automated Vehicle (AV) control in mixed traffic, where AVs coexist with human-driven vehicles, poses significant challenges in balancing safety, efficiency, comfort, fuel efficiency, and compliance with traffic rules while capturing…

Guaranteeing the quality of transit service is of great importance to promote the attractiveness of buses and alleviate urban traffic issues such as congestion and pollution. Emerging technologies of automated driving and V2X communication…

Linear Parameter-Varying (LPV) systems with jumps and piecewise differentiable parameters is a class of hybrid LPV systems for which no tailored stability analysis and stabilization conditions have been obtained so far. We fill this gap…

In potential flow networks, the equilibrium flow rates are usually not proportional to the demands and flow control elements are required to regulate the flow. The control elements can broadly be classified into two types - discrete and…

This paper investigates a stochastic linear-quadratic (SLQ, for short) control problem regulated by a time-invariant Markov chain in infinite horizon. Under the $L^2$-stability framework, we study a class of linear backward stochastic…

Modern control systems must operate in increasingly complex environments subject to safety constraints and input limits, and are often implemented in a hierarchical fashion with different controllers running at multiple time scales. Yet…

We study the ability of autonomous vehicles to improve the throughput of a bottleneck using a fully decentralized control scheme in a mixed autonomy setting. We consider the problem of improving the throughput of a scaled model of the San…

This paper concerns the adaptive control problem for a class of nonlinear stochastic systems in which the state update is given by a nonlinear function of linear dynamics plus additive stochastic noise. Such systems arise in a wide range of…

In human-robot systems, ensuring safety during force control in the presence of both internal and external disturbances is crucial. As a typical loosely coupled floating-base robot system, the supernumerary robotic leg (SRL) system is…

We describe traffic flows in one lane roadways using kinetic theory, with special emphasis on the role of quenched randomness in the velocity distributions. When passing is forbidden, growing clusters are formed behind slow cars and the…

In this note, we propose a case study of freeway traffic flow modeled as a hybrid system. We describe two general classes of networks that model flow along a freeway with merging onramps. The admission rate of traffic flow from each onramp…

This article deals with the design of saturated controls in the context of partial differential equations. It focuses on a Korteweg-de Vries equation, which is a nonlinear mathematical model of waves on shallow water surfaces. Two different…

We study a minimal model of traffic flows in complex networks, simple enough to get analytical results, but with a very rich phenomenology, presenting continuous, discontinuous as well as hybrid phase transitions between a free-flow phase…

We consider the Follow-the-Leader (FtL) model and study which properties of the initial positioning of the vehicles ensure its convergence to the classical Lighthill-Whitham-Richards (LWR) model for traffic flow. Robustness properties of…

We study an optimal boundary control problem for the two-dimensional stationary micropolar fluids system with variable density. We control the system by considering boundary controls, for the velocity vector and angular velocity of rotation…

Truck platooning is a technology that is expected to become widespread in the coming years. Apart from the numerous benefits that it brings, its potential effects on the overall traffic situation need to be studied further, especially at…
