In inverse optimal control, the optimality of a given feedback stabilizing controller is a byproduct of the choice of a meaningful, a posteriori defined, cost functional. This allows for a simple tuning comparable to linear quadratic…
Delays are ubiquitous in modern hybrid systems, which exhibit both continuous and discrete dynamical behaviors. Induced by signal transmission, conversion, the nature of plants, and so on, delays may appear either in the continuous…
A significant amount of converter-based generation is being integrated into the bulk electric power grid to fulfill the future electric demand through renewable energy sources, such as wind and photovoltaic. The dynamics of converter…
A high step up dc dc converter based on an isolated dc dc converter with voltage multiplier cells for photovoltaic systems is essentially introduced in this paper. The proposed converter can provide a high step up voltage gain. The switch…
We study feedback controller synthesis for reach-avoid control of discrete-time, linear time-invariant (LTI) systems with Gaussian process and measurement noise. The problem is to compute a controller such that, with at least some required…
In this paper, we propose a formal controller synthesis approach for integrating a population of plug-in electric vehicles in frequency regulation of power systems. This approach is the first application of formal methods to the smart grids…
This paper addresses the problem of forbidden states for safe Petri net modeling discrete event systems. We present an efficient method to construct a controller. A set of linear constraints allow forbidding the reachability of specific…
As the share of renewable generation in large power systems continues to increase, the operation of power systems becomes increasingly challenging. The constantly shifting mix of renewable and conventional generation leads to largely…
In this paper, we present a controller synthesis approach for wind turbine generators (WTG) and energy storage systems with metric temporal logic (MTL) specifications, with provable probabilistic guarantees in the stochastic environment of…
Synthesis of reversible logic circuits has gained great atten- tion during the last decade. Various synthesis techniques have been pro- posed, some generate optimal solutions (in gate count) and are termed as exact, while others are…
Discrete-time stochastic systems with continuous spaces are hard to verify and control, even with MDP abstractions due to the curse of dimensionality. We propose an abstraction-based framework with robust dynamic programming mappings that…
A rapid deployment of renewable generation has led to significant reduction in the rotational system inertia and damping, thus making frequency control in power systems more challenging. This paper proposes a novel control scheme based on…
This paper addresses the problem of output voltage regulation for multiple DC-DC converters connected to a grid, and prescribes a robust scheme for sharing power among different sources. Also it develops a method for sharing 120 Hz ripple…
We consider optimal distributed controller synthesis for an interconnected system subject to communication constraints, in linear quadratic settings. Motivated by the problem of finite heavy duty vehicle platooning, we study systems…
The method for controlling a DC-DC converter is proposed to ensures the high quality control at large fluctuations in load currents by using differential gain control coefficients and second derivative control. Various implementations of…
Data-driven control approaches for the minimization of energy consumption of buildings have the potential to significantly reduce deployment costs and increase uptake of advanced control in this sector. A number of recent approaches based…
The global trend toward renewable power generation has drawn great attention to hydrogen Fuel Cells (FCs), which have a wide variety of applications, from utility power stations to laptops. The Multi-stack Fuel Cell System (MFCS), which is…
One of the most important challenges facing an electric grid is to incorporate renewables and distributed energy resources (DERs) to the grid. Because of the associated uncertainties in power generations and peak power demands,…
This paper designs H2 and H-infinity distributed controllers with local communication and local disturbance rejection. We propose a two-step procedure: first, select closed-loop poles; then, optimize over parameterized controllers. We build…
This paper proposes a decentralised secondary voltage control strategy that has several benefits over the existing centralised strategies. For that, a new structure for the control is proposed in terms of an inner and outer loops for each…
