  • Advances in Gain-Scheduling and Fault Tolerant Control Techniques

    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This thesis reports on novel methods for gain-scheduling and fault tolerant control (FTC). It begins by analyzing the connection between the linear parameter varying (LPV) and Takagi-Sugeno (TS) paradigms. This is then followed by a detailed description of the design of robust and shifting state-feedback controllers for these systems. Furthermore, it presents two approaches to fault-tolerant ...

  • Non-identifier Based Adaptive Control in Mechatronics

    Theory and Application

    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book introduces non-identifier-based adaptive control (with and without internal model) and its application to the current, speed and position control of mechatronic systems such as electrical synchronous machines, wind turbine systems, industrial servo systems, and rigid-link, revolute-joint robots.In mechatronics, there is often only rough knowledge of the system. Due to parameter ... Read more

  • Iterative Learning Control

    An Optimization Paradigm

    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book develops a coherent and quite general theoretical approach to algorithm design for iterative learning control based on the use of operator representations and quadratic optimization concepts including the related ideas of inverse model control and gradient-based design.Using detailed examples taken from linear, discrete and continuous-time systems, the author gives the reader access to ...

  • Simulation-Based Algorithms for Markov Decision Processes

    Series series Engineering (R0)
    Markov decision process (MDP) models are widely used for modeling sequential decision-making problems that arise in engineering, economics, computer science, and the social sciences. Many real-world problems modeled by MDPs have huge state and/or action spaces, giving an opening to the curse of dimensionality and so making practical solution of the resulting models intractable. In other cases, the ... Read more

  • Rise of Automation - Technology and Robots Will Replace Humans

    by Adidas Wilson ...
    You probably have an idea how robots will affect human workers negatively. Chief players in the tech world like Bill Gates and Elon Musk have provided their solutions; universal basic income or robot tax. But amidst the serious warnings and the utter sci-fi utopias, the human pain that will follow future job loss seems to be forgotten.15 years or so from now, the US economy will lose 38% of its ...

  • Stochastic Averaging and Stochastic Extremum Seeking

    Series series Engineering (R0)
    Stochastic Averaging and Extremum Seeking treats methods inspired by attempts to understand the seemingly non-mathematical question of bacterial chemotaxis and their application in other environments. The text presents significant generalizations on existing stochastic averaging theory developed from scratch and necessitated by the need to avoid violation of previous theoretical assumptions by ...
