Control of non-condensing non-ideal-gas power cycles is challenging because their output power dynamics depend on complex system interactions, non-ideal-gas effects complicate turbomachinery behavior, and state constraints must be…
Nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) has gained widespread use in many applications. Its formulation traditionally involves repetitively solving a nonlinear constrained optimization problem online. In this paper, we investigate NMPC…
Heavy computational load for solving nonconvex problems for large-scale systems or systems with real-time demands at each sample step has been recognized as one of the reasons for preventing a wider application of nonlinear model predictive…
Hybrid power plants (HPPs) combine multiple power generators (conventional/variable) and energy storage capabilities to support generation inadequacy and grid demands. This paper introduces a modeling and control design framework for hybrid…
Adaptive Horizon Model Predictive Control (AHMPC) is a scheme for varying as needed the horizon length of Model Predictive Control (MPC). Its goal is to achieve stabilization with horizons as small as possible so that MPC can be used on…

Conventional control of fluid systems does not consider system-wide knowledge for optimising energy efficient operation. Distributed control of fluid systems combines reliable local control of components while using system-wide cooperation…
In adaptive-sampling control, the control frequency can be adjusted during task execution. Ensuring that these changes do not jeopardize the safety of the system being controlled requires attention. We introduce robust M-step hold model…
