In this work, we design a nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) strategy to optimize energy management in integrated rooftop greenhouses and buildings, aimed at minimizing operational expenses and reducing climate irregularities. This integrated system is tailored to maintain ideal conditions for both plant growth and building occupancy, utilizing the building's excess heat and air to lower energy consumption and CO2 emissions. The NMPC framework employs dynamic nonlinear models for temperature, humidity, and CO2, enhanced with real-time weather data, to improve control accuracy beyond traditional MPC methods. It manages various systems including fans, pad cooling, shading devices, heating, ventilation, air conditioning, CO2 injection, and lighting to precisely control environmental conditions. A case study from a rooftop greenhouse in Brooklyn, New York, demonstrates the NMPC's efficacy, showing an average energy savings of 15.2%. These results highlight the significant potential of NMPC to advance urban agricultural systems and building management practices. Copyright (C) 2024 The Authors.

This paper presents a unified educational framework for introducing and analyzing different time-constrained control methodologies for nonlinearsystems. The formulation covers asymptotic, finite-time, fixed-time, predefined-time, and prescribed-time control approaches. For each methodology, the controldesign requirements are outlined, followed by the controller formulation and stability analysis using a generic second-order strict-feedback nonlinear system model. This unified treatment allows for a cohesive learning journey to understand the theoretical foundations and relative merits of the various time-constrained control strategies. To illustrate the practical utility of these techniques, the frameworks are applied to the attitude control problem for a rigid spacecraft. Comparative simulation results highlight the convergence behavior and tracking performance achieved by each method on this aerospace vehicle application. The unified presentation provides a pedagogical approach for the systematic study of time-constrained control methodologies of relevance for aerospace systems. This formulation can serve as an educational resource in aerospace control curricula for exposing students to these advanced nonlinearcontrol techniques. Copyright (C) 2024 The Authors.

There is an emerging trend in applying deep learning methods to control complex nonlinearsystems. This paper considers enhancing the runtime safety of nonlinearsystemscontrolled by neural networks in the presence of disturbance and measurement noise. A robustly stable interval observer is designed to generate sound and precise lower and upper bounds for the neural network, nonlinear function, and system state. The obtained interval is utilised to monitor the real-time system safety and detect faults in the system's outputs or actuators. An adaptive cruise control vehicular system is simulated to demonstrate effectiveness of the proposed design. Copyright (c) 2024 The Authors.

Power-based output feedback compensator for oscillatory systems is proposed. The average input-output power of an oscillatory signal serves as an equivalent control effort, while the unknown amplitude and frequency of oscillations are detected at each half-period. This makes the compensator adaptive and discrete, while the measured oscillatory output is the single available signal in use. The resulting discrete control scheme enables a drastic reduction of communication efforts in the control loop. The compensator is designed for 2nd order systems, while an extension to higher-order dynamics, like e.g. in case of two-inertia systems, is also provided. Illustrative experimental case study of the 5th order oscillatory system is provided. Copyright (c) 2024 The Authors.

Low-power multi high gain observers (LP MHGO) are proven to be effective in reducing the peaking of state estimation of nonlinearsystems to an arbitrarily small magnitude. Moreover, they reduce the sensitivity of estimates to measurement noise. They also relax the numerical implementation problem of high gain observers by using gains powered up to the order of 2 instead of n. In this paper, we aim to further reduce the noise sensitivity of these observers by employing low-pass filters in the observer dynamics. The main results establish the convergence of the estimation error to zero with an arbitrarily small decay rate in the absence of noise, as well as an input to state stability feature when the noise is present. We also demonstrate in the linear case that the proposed observer improves the upper bound on the estimates. Simulation results compare the performance of the proposed observer with similar works and show the effectiveness of the proposed method. Copyright (c) 2023 The Authors.

This paper focuses on the utilization of dynamic simulation models in the planning of experiments for control development. A set of models based on the first principles for system level simulation of the complete new TCP-100 research facility at Plataforma Solar de Almeria (CIEMAT) was planned for the development of control solutions for this new research facility which replaced the 32-year-old ACUREX facility. Many advances in Automatic control have been reached by using the ACUREX field. Simulation experiments with the parabolic trough (PTC) field would require more tuning and adaptive parts before getting the required experimental data for typical operating conditions. The analysis operates for all state variables, which are temperatures, and input variables, which include solar radiation, ambient temperature and several setpoints. The nonlinear scaling approach keeps the algorithms unchanged by focusing on the meanings of the measured variables. The scaling functions are variable specific. For the irradiation, the functions do not change which means that also the indicator of the cloudiness remains the same. The algorithms are not changed and the data analysis is for a limited set of measurements and subsystems. The simulation experiments need to be first focused on the loops and modules of the solar field and the full model need to be extended before going to the full simulation tests and the test campaigns with the new facility.

This paper discusses the use of the so-called congelation of variables method in the reference tracking problem for a class of nonlinearsystems with matched, time-varying, parametric uncertainty. It is shown that the tracking problem using the proposed framework can be decomposed into a zero-regulation problem and a disturbance rejection problem. To reduce the size of the disturbance term, a dynamical system with known input is incorporated into the parameter update law to generate a time-varying nominal parameter. To reject the remaining disturbance term, a sign-like function is exploited, which achieves an adjustable tracking performance in an average sense, while guaranteeing boundedness of all trajectories of the closed-loop system. The theory is illustrated by solving a path-tracking problem and it is shown that the proposed control scheme outperforms the classical scheme in the presence of time-varying parameters.
