Model-based control of spatially extended systems
We extend a new method of control, model-based control, to the realm of partial differential equations. The hallmark of model-based control is that a particular goal dynamics is achieved by using a model for the observed dynamics to create the appropriate driving needed to make the goal dynamics an …

Empirical model-based control for end milling process
… of this research is to develop an empirical model-based control mechanism to maintain a fine surface finish quality by maintaining on-line cutting force values. The proposed model has been developed to present the control model constraints, by varying the machining parameters to control the …

Model-Based Control of Gasoline Partially Premixed Combustion
… and soot formation. The ignition delay is mainly controlled by temperature, gas-mixture composition, fuel type and fuel-injection timing. It has been shown that PPC run on gasoline fuel can provide sufficient ignition delays in conventional compression-ignition engines. The PPC concept differs …

Bond graph model based control of robotic manipulators
… by the capability of the algorithm used to control it. Whilst being a highly non-linear multiple input, multiple output device, however, most industrial controllers are derived on the basis that the robot is a series of independent, linear actuator+ link subsystems. The resulting independent …

Learning compositional dynamics models for model-based control
… objects, scenes, and tasks. However, existing models like Interaction Networks only work for fully observable systems; they also only consider pairwise interactions within a single time step, both restricting their use in practical systems. We introduce Propagation Networks (PropNets), a …

Configurable, Coordinated, Model-based Control in Electrical Distribution Systems
… Trace Analysis along with an integrated system model are used to develop algorithms and analysis methods necessary to facilitate the implementation of these new technologies on the electrical distribution system. A penetration limit analysis is developed to analyze the impact of distributed …

Model based control optimisation of renewable energy based HVAC Systems.
… is a poor system design combined with suboptimal control. Often several non optimised components, each separately controlled, are put together to form a ‘cooling system’. To overcome these drawbacks several attempts are made within IEA task 38 (International Energy Agency Solar Heating and Cooling …

A neuromuscular-model based control strategy for powered ankle-foot prostheses
… target torque trajectory is known, and the controller issues commands to follow the trajectory as closely as possible. However, without a methodology to update the desired trajectory in real time, this type of control scheme is limited in that it cannot adapt to externally-applied …

Model-based Control for Robot Manipulation Tasks with High-dimensional State Spaces
… in order to apply classical planning and control methods; e.g., viewing a symbolic representation versus pixel-based representation. A common approach to addressing long horizon tasks is to develop a hierarchical system with a fixed state representation and a set of discrete and continuous …

Building and controlling fluidically actuated soft robots : from open loop to model-based control
This thesis describes the creation and control of soft robots made of deformable elastomer materials and powered by fluidics. We embed soft fluidic actuators into self-contained soft robotic systems, such as fish for underwater exploration or soft arms for dynamic manipulation. We present models …
