We present a dynamic model for the optimal control problem (OCP) of hydrogen blending into natural gas pipeline networks subject to inequality constraints. The dynamic model is derived using the first principles partial differential…
We propose an optimal operation control strategy for an electro-thermal microgrid. Compared to existing work, our approach increases flexibility by operating the thermal network with variable flow temperatures and in that way explicitly…
In this paper, we investigate how to achieve the unpredictability against malicious inferences for linear systems. The key idea is to add stochastic control inputs, named as unpredictable control, to make the outputs irregular. The future…
In this paper, we consider the problem of regulating the outlet pressure of gas flowing through a pipeline subject to uncertain and variable outlet flow. Gas flow through a pipe is modeled using the coupled isothermal Euler equations, with…
We consider piecewise-deterministic optimal control problems in which the environment randomly switches among several deterministic modes, and the goal is to optimize the expected cost up to the termination while taking the likelihood of…
We present a method for computing A-optimal sensor placements for infinite-dimensional Bayesian linear inverse problems governed by PDEs with irreducible model uncertainties. Here, irreducible uncertainties refers to uncertainties in the…
We study the optimal power flow problem with switching (or, equivalently, the line expansion problem) under demand uncertainty. Specifically, we consider the line-use variables at the first stage and the current- or power-flow at the second…
Probabilistic guarantees of safety and performance are important in constrained dynamical systems with stochastic uncertainty. We consider the stochastic reachability problem, which maximizes the probability that the state remains within…
Stochastic Model Predictive Control has proved to be an efficient method to plan trajectories in uncertain environments, e.g., for autonomous vehicles. Chance constraints ensure that the probability of collision is bounded by a predefined…
This paper presents an algorithm to apply nonlinear control design approaches in the case of stochastic systems with partial state observation. Deterministic nonlinear control approaches are formulated under the assumption of full state…
The objective of this paper is to improve the accuracy and robustness of optimal power flow (OPF) formulations for distribution systems modeled down to the low-voltage point of connection of individual buildings. An approach for addressing…
The Energiewende is a paradigm change that can be witnessed at latest since the political decision to step out of nuclear energy. Moreover, despite common roots in Electrical Engineering, the control community and the power systems…
We investigate a numerical behaviour of robust deterministic optimal control problem subject to a convection diffusion equation containing uncertain inputs. Stochastic Galerkin approach, turning the original optimization problem containing…
The problem of continuous inverse optimal control (over finite time horizon) is to learn the unknown cost function over the sequence of continuous control variables from expert demonstrations. In this article, we study this fundamental…
Stochastic Model Predictive Control addresses uncertainties by incorporating chance constraints that provide probabilistic guarantees of constraint satisfaction. However, simultaneously optimizing over the risk allocation and the feedback…
This paper presents a scheme for dual robust control of batch processes under parametric uncertainty. The dual-control paradigm arises in the context of adaptive control. A trade-off should be decided between the control actions that…
High wind energy penetration critically challenges the economic dispatch of current and future power systems. Supply and demand must be balanced at every bus of the grid, while respecting transmission line ratings and accounting for the…
Model Predictive Control is an extremely effective control method for systems with input and state constraints. Model Predictive Control performance heavily depends on the accuracy of the open-loop prediction. For systems with uncertainty…
Leveraging recent developments in black-box risk-aware verification, we provide three algorithms that generate probabilistic guarantees on (1) optimality of solutions, (2) recursive feasibility, and (3) maximum controller runtimes for…
Motivated by the increasing need to hedge against load and generation uncertainty in the operation of power grids, we propose flexibility maximization during operation. We consider flexibility explicitly as the amount of uncertainty that…
