A modified hybrid energy storage system (HESS) consisting of a double-screw expander-generator (DSEG) and a supercapacitor is proposed here to accommodate wind power fluctuations. The dynamic matrix control (DMC) algorithm is applied to improve the operating performance of the HESS. The reference track of the exchanging active power of the supercapacitor is pre-planned based on wind turbine output, load demand, and the predictive DSEG output. Meanwhile, a linearisation and state of charge (SOC) management strategy for the supercapacitor is proposed to avoid excessive charging-discharging. During the predictivecontrol process, the DSEG input is continually adjusted by means of rolling optimisation combined with feedback correction until the output of the HESS approximates its expectation. Case studies show that the supercapacitor efficiently eliminates the power hysteresis of the DSEG and the DSEG eliminates the intrinsic error caused by the linearisation of the supercapacitor output in turn, indicating that the control effect of the HESS is improved.

This paper proposes a predictive control method with offset voltage injection for achieving a neutral point (NP) voltage balance of three-phase three-level neutral point clamped (NPC) inverter, without employing a weighting factor. In order to ensure the proper and reliable operation of the NPC inverter, the NP voltage balance should be regulated in addition to the sinusoidal output current. The conventional predictive control methods for NPC has suffered from tedious weighting factor selection. Besides, when the converter's parameters value and control condition changes, it is cumbersome to empirically redesign the weighting factor. Therefore, the proposed predictive control method without the weighting factor can successfully maintain the balance of NP voltage by utilizing an offset voltage, which is determined according to the difference between the upper and lower capacitor voltages. As a result, the proposed algorithm using the offset voltage injection can control the output currents and maintain the balance of NP voltage. Simulation and experiments are presented to prove the validity of the NP voltage balancing of the proposed controlmethod.

A model predictivecontrol (MPC) framework with a fixed maneuver horizon and shrinking prediction and control horizons is presented that, at each time step, minimizes the most accurate prediction of a complete cost for a discrete linear system, subject to constraints. methods of weight selection to ensure strong convexity of the cost, which makes the quadratic programming problem associated with MPC numerically more tractable, are discussed. A continuous-time flexible-blade helicopter dynamic model is discretized, and the resulting model is used to demonstrate this control design method in ship landing and touchdown maneuvers. Inequality constraints, ship-induced turbulence, and parametric uncertainty are gradually included in the design and analysis. Several case studies are used to illustrate the effectiveness of this controlmethod in landings on ships that experience quiescent and nonquiescent motions.

The heating load, as well as the charging and discharging efficiency of phase change thermal storage devices, exhibit time-dependent variations. Consequently, the application of the predictive control method is crucial for optimizing the operation and enhancing the efficiency of phase change thermal storage heating systems. However, existing controlmethods lack better real-time adjustment capabilities. Therefore, this paper proposes a controlmethod based on day-ahead and intraday dual time scale prediction. The day-ahead predictivecontrol model is established by an iterative method, which can provide a preliminary plan for the next 24 h of system operation. The intraday predictivecontrol model is established by the Convolutional Neural Network and Long Short-Term Memory network method, which can determine the optimal control strategy by combining real-time residual heat and ultra-short-term load prediction results. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, an automatic control experimental platform (phase change thermal storage heating system based on paraffin-based phase change material) was built to carry out comparative experiments. Experimental results indicate that, in comparison to the control group (the traditional switching controlmethod and the day-ahead single time scale controlmethod), the proposed controlmethod effectively improves the matching degree of supply and demand, with increases of up to 31.6 %. This method helps to reduce the occurrence of under-supply and over-supply scenarios, thereby improving indoor thermal comfort and avoiding energy waste, respectively.

This article provides an overview of control algorithms for grid-connected converters in renewable energy systems, demonstrating their relevance and potential for further research. A common issue among authors of scientific works is the lack of a wide range of conducted research. Often, the results showing the operation of the developed algorithms in transient states or under abnormal supply conditions (such as asymmetries and distortions) are missing. This significantly reduces the ability to compare developed solutions, making it difficult to choose the appropriate controlmethod for future research. The article suggests which control algorithm for power converters is best suited for research considering various factors.

This paper presents a robust predictive control method with uncertainty quantification for problems, such as online aircraft flutter suppression. The proposed approach begins by identifying the multistep output prediction matrices under various test conditions from online time-domain input/output data. Singular value decomposition is then used to characterize and quantify the parameter uncertainties of the prediction matrices. The predicted response error due to parameter uncertainties is integrated into the predictivecontrol design process for robustness. The proposed method provides an innovative and efficient way to incorporate the quantified uncertainty in predictivecontrol design with a linear process. The proposed approach is demonstrated by application to the Benchmark Active controls Technology wind-tunnel model.

The performance of an inverse dynamics guidance and control strategy is experimentally evaluated for the planar maneuver of a "chaser" spacecraft docking with a rotating "target." The experiments were conducted on an airbearing proximity maneuver testbed. The chaser spacecraft simulator consists of a three-degree-of-freedom autonomous vehicle floating via air pads on a granite table and actuated by thrusters. The target consists of a docking interface mounted on a rotational stage with the rotation axis perpendicular to the plane of motion. Given a preassigned trajectory, the guidance and control strategy computes the required maneuver control forces and torque via an inverse dynamics operation. The recorded data of 150 experimental test runs were analyzed using two-way analysis of variance and post hoc Tukey tests. The metrics were maneuver success, vehicle mass change, maneuver duration, thruster duty cycle, and maneuver work. The results showed that the guidance and control algorithm provided robust performance over a range of target rotation rates from 1 to 4 deg /s. The effects of the rate estimation errors are measurable but not dominant.

The openness of networks renders them vulnerable to various forms of attacks. When networked switched systems (NSS) suffer from denial of service (DoS) attacks and delays, the real-time property of the dataset decreases, greatly affecting the control performance. To address this issue, this article proposes a switched adaptive dynamic programming (ADP) predictive control method. An event-triggered mechanism is designed to reduce unnecessary waste of network transmission resources. A predictive mechanism is designed to accurately reconstruct the missing system state and switching signal under DoS network attacks. Then, the reconstructed data are applied to train the actor and critic neural networks, which are used to approximate the optimal control policy and performance index function (PIF) of the NSS, respectively. Furthermore, the iterative convergence of the switched ADP algorithm is proved. Finally, a numerical example is provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
