Numerical Methods for Optimal Control Problems with Application to Autonomous Vehicles
… in a race circuit track considering a number of realistic constraints. A new algorithm for path planning is completely described for the construction of a quasi G2 fitting of the GPS data with a clothoid spline in terms of the G1 Hermite interpolation problem. In particular the present algorithm …

Coordinated Optimal Power Planning of Wind Turbines in a Wind Farm
… the followers are real wind turbines considering realistic constraints, such as tower deflection limits. A nonlinear wind turbine dynamics model is adopted for the low level study with loading and other constraints considered in the optimization. The stability of the algorithm in the low level is …

A Geodynamic Investigation of Magma-Poor Rifting Processes and Melt Generation: A Case Study of the Malawi Rift and Rungwe Volcanic Province, East Africa
… feeding the RVP can be generated from LMC using realistic constraints on the mantle potential temperature (Tp). We develop a 3D thermomechanical model of LMC beneath the RVP and the entire Malawi Rift that incorporates melt generation. We find decompression melt associated with LMC upwelling (~3 …
