In this paper, we present a framework for combined path and motion trajectory planning for the purpose of coordinating fully automated vehicles in confined sites. The path planning component utilizes a Monte-Carlo tree search approach for computing the vehicle paths and the motion trajectory component utilizes a two-stage optimization-based algorithm that optimizes the state and input trajectories for all vehicles while avoiding inter-vehicle conflicts. The motion trajectories are tracked by a low-level controller and both the path and motion trajectories are recomputed based on the feedback signals. The performance of the framework is validated through numerical simulations and results show both improved energy efficiency and productivity.

With an increasing share of power-electronics inter-faced generation units in the energy mix, the demand for accurate dynamic transient simulations of power grids rises. Up to now, such simulations often employ highly simplified inverter models that neglect the inner control loops by replacing them with ideal voltage or current sources. In this paper, we present inner loop models for both voltage and current control modes based on first principles. We use the balanced residualization approach to derive reduced-order models, which cover a middle ground between highly simplistic ideal sources and computationally expensive full-order models. The models are validated against experimental data in a Power-Hardware-in-the-Loop laboratory.

In this paper, we present an optimization-based control strategy for coordinating multiple electric automated vehicles (AVs) in confined sites. The approach focuses on obtaining and keeping energy-efficient driving profiles for the AVs while avoiding collisions in cross-intersections, narrow roads, and merge crossings. Specifically, the approach is composed of two optimization-based components. The first component obtains the energy-efficient profiles for each individual AV by solving a Nonlinear Program (NLP) for the vehicle's complete mission route. The conflict resolution, which is performed by the second component, is accomplished by solving a time-scheduling Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) problem that exploits the application characteristics. We demonstrate the performance of the algorithm through a non-trivial comparative simulation example with an alternative optimization-based heuristic.

Motivated by the need to localise faults along electrical power lines, this paper adopts a frequency-domain approach to parameter estimation for an infinite-dimensional linear dynamical system with one spatial variable. Since the time of the fault is unknown, and voltages and currents are measured at only one end of the line, distance information must be extracted from the post-fault transients. To properly account for high-frequency transient behaviour, the line dynamics is modelled directly by the Telegrapher's equation, rather than the more commonly used lumped-parameter approximations. First, the governing equations are non-dimensionalised to avoid ill-conditioning. A closed-form expression for the transfer function is then derived. Finally, nonlinear least-squares optimisation is employed to search for the fault location. Requirements on fault bandwidth, sensor bandwidth and simulation time-step are also presented. The result is a novel end-to-end algorithm for data generation and fault localisation, the effectiveness of which is demonstrated via simulation.

In this paper, the tracking control problem for networked control system(NCS) under communication delays is investigated. In order to realize the tracking of the NCS, an event-triggered predictive control strategy is provided to compensate for the delays and achieve stability. Both tracking performance and input increments are considered in the proposed cost *** on the incremental inputs, an event-triggered mechanism is established to reduce the communication costs. The efforts of different parameters are illustrated through the results of the simulation, and the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is also validated from the application of the networked lighting setup.
We propose an adaptive algorithm for identifying the unknown parameter in a linear exponentially stable single-input single-output infinite-dimensional system. We assume that the transfer function of the infinite-dime...
