Proving grounds and test areas equipped with smart infrastructure might provide a solution to bridge the gap between laboratory testbeds and real-life testing by challenging the autonomous vehicle with critical scenarios in a risk-less way. Whereas actual research focuses on the infrastructure-sided support of automated and assisted driving, we focus on the integration of real experimental vehicles with simulated, virtual obstacles and traffic participants on the side of smart infrastructure of proving grounds and test areas. In the present work, we propose an innovative testsystem protocol as the missing link to integrate real physical vehicles with virtual obstacles. We derive general requirements and a universally valid testsystem protocol. Due to the technological developments and distribution of the wireless communication protocol stack IEEE 802.11p / ETSI ITS-G5, we focus the evaluation of its suitability for this. Finally, we highlight further emerging research questions.

Agent-based modeling and simulation is a practical computational technique for studying complex systems of autonomous agents in various disciplines. Agent-based models facilitate the study of emergent phenomena by simulating heterogeneous agents and their flexible behaviors and interactions. However, developing an agent-based model of a complex system is often time-consuming and vulnerable to the modeler’s biases. Addressing this challenge requires a paradigm shift from knowledge-driven modeling to data-driven modeling. In this research, we initiate and experiment with automating the process of composing agent-based models by developing data-driven model extraction. To achieve this objective, we conduct experiments employing different variations of Schelling’s segregation model, a well-known agent-based model, each featuring different parameter sets and complexity levels.

This paper explores the impact of the burgeoning electric vehicle (EV) presence on distribution grid operations, highlighting the challenges they present to conventional pricing strategies due to their dual role as power consumers and suppliers, coupled with their energy storage capabilities. We propose an advanced real-time pricing model for the electricity market, employing a novel distributed bilevel optimization framework. This framework distinguishes between the distribution system operator (DSO) at the upper level and the EVs at the lower level, each aiming to optimize profit margins. The optimization includes power flow constraints at the upper level to ensure efficient operation within safe system limits, while model predictive control (MPC) is used to optimize lower-level EV responses. Additionally, we provide a rigorous convergence analysis of the proposed bilevel optimization method. Detailed convergence studies and simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed algorithm.

Distributed optimization has been shown to be one promising method for tackling reactive power dispatch, however the performance of distributed algorithms is known to be dependent on how the given problem is partitioned. The question of how to optimally partition a power grid for use in distributed optimization remains open in the literature. In the present paper, we test partitions generated by the graph partitioned KaFFPa, METIS, and spectral clustering using five edge-weighting metrics. The standard IEEE 14, 30, and 57 bus models are used as benchmark case studies and the Augmented Lagrangian Alternating Direction Inexact Newton algorithm is used as the distributed optimization algorithm. It is shown that performance varies drastically depending on which partitioner and weighting is used. Overall, KaFFPa with weightings given by the Y-bus matrix yields the best results.

This paper presents the design of Linear Quadratic Regulator and Pole Placement controllers with integral action using MATLAB and Simulink for controlling the temperature field in the secondary cooling zone of a continuous casting process. The secondary cooling zone in continuous casting represents a distributed parameter system. During steel production, the type of steel produced changes continuously, necessitating a control system that can respond quickly and flexibly. We compared the performance of the Linear Quadratic Regulator and Pole Placement control techniques for the temperature field in the secondary cooling zone by analyzing the system’s response. The simulation results demonstrate that the Linear Quadratic Regulator technique outperforms the Pole Placement technique for the specified system.

Classical fault tree analysis (FTA) can be used to analyze and assess combinations of failures of basic components that lead to system failures within a given system. Classical FTA is however unable to handle how temporal sequences of faults lead to system failures. This is an important issue in complex dynamic systems. To model complex systems where the behavior of components or events depends on the system's state or time, dynamic gates are used. Therefore, we extend our work on learning static repairable fault trees from time series data and propose a data-driven algorithm to extract dynamic gates from time series data of faults. Our proposed algorithm captures sequences of events by converting a time-stamped truth table into temporal gates, which allows learning dynamic gates from data.
