Springer Nature Switzerland AG Model-Reference Adaptive Control: A Primer
Book SynopsisThis textbook provides readers with a good working knowledge of adaptive control theory through applications. It is intended for students beginning masters or doctoral courses, and control practitioners wishing to get up to speed in the subject expeditiously. Readers are taught a wide variety of adaptive control techniques starting with simple methods and extending step-by-step to more complex ones. Stability proofs are provided for all adaptive control techniques without obfuscating reader understanding with excessive mathematics. The book begins with standard model-reference adaptive control (MRAC) for first-order, second-order, and multi-input, multi-output systems. Treatment of least-squares parameter estimation and its extension to MRAC follow, helping readers to gain a different perspective on MRAC. Function approximation with orthogonal polynomials and neural networks, and MRAC using neural networks are also covered. Robustness issues connected with MRAC are discussed, helping the student to appreciate potential pitfalls of the technique. This appreciation is encouraged by drawing parallels between various aspects of robustness and linear time-invariant systems wherever relevant. Following on from the robustness problems is material covering robust adaptive control including standard methods and detailed exposition of recent advances, in particular, the author’s work on optimal control modification. Interesting properties of the new method are illustrated in the design of adaptive systems to meet stability margins. This method has been successfully flight-tested on research aircraft, one of various flight-control applications detailed towards the end of the book along with a hybrid adaptive flight control architecture that combines direct MRAC with least-squares indirect adaptive control. In addition to the applications, understanding is encouraged by the use of end-of-chapter exercises and associated MATLAB® files. Readers will need no more than the standard mathematics for basic control theory such as differential equations and matrix algebra; the book covers the foundations of MRAC and the necessary mathematical preliminaries.Trade Review“This book presents the fundamental theories of least-squares function approximation and least-squares adaptive control of systems with unstructured uncertainty. … The book is intended for students beginning masters or doctoral courses, and control practitioners wishing to get up to speed in the subject expeditiously.” (Vjacheslav Vasiliev, zbMATH 1405.93001, 2019)Table of ContentsIntroduction.- Nonlinear Systems.- Mathematical Preliminaries.- Lyspunov Stability Theory.- Model-Reference Adaptive Control.- Least-Squares Parameter Identification.- Function Approximation and Adaptive Control with Unstructured Uncertainty.- Robustness Issues with Adaptive Control.- Robust Adaptive Control.- Adaptive Control Applications.

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG Funktional und räumlich variables und modulares Laborgerätesystem
Book SynopsisViele Bereich der Chemie bedienen sich neuerdings komplexer, aufwendiger Analyseautomaten, die aus Wirtschaftlichkeitsgrunden haufig in zentralen Dienstleistungsabteilungen angesiedelt sind. Dieser Tendenz zur Zentralisierung kann im wesentlichen durch zwei Massnahmen entgegengewirkt werden: durch eine dezentrale Automatisierung unter Verwendung einer Standardgeratetechnik, durch Bedienungsmoglichkeiten von Automatisierungsfunktionen ohne laborfremdes Fachwissen (Programmierung, Rechnertechnik). In dem vorliegenden Buch werden die Einflussfaktoren fur die Gestaltung eines Laborgeratesystems analysiert. Aus dieser Analyse werden die Eigenschaften und Funktionen des Laborgeratesystems abgeleitet und fortschreitend detailliert. Dabei zeigt es sich, dass sich sowohl die geratetechnischen Funktionen als auch die Bedienfunktionen auf elementare Einzelfunktionen zuruckfuhren lassen. Abschliessend wird eine Realisierungsmoglichkeit dieses Geratesystems vorgestellt, bei der der Modularisierungsgedanke auch innerhalb der Gerate weitergefuhrt wurde.

Springer Verlag, Singapore Plug In Electric Vehicles in Smart Grids: Energy Management
Book SynopsisThis book highlights the cutting-edge research on energy management within smart grids with significant deployment of Plug-in Electric Vehicles (PEV). These vehicles not only can be a significant electrical power consumer during Grid to Vehicle (G2V) charging mode, they can also be smartly utilized as a controlled source of electrical power when they are used in Vehicle to Grid (V2G) operating mode. Electricity Price, Time of Use Tariffs, Quality of Service, Social Welfare as well as electrical parameters of the network are all different criteria considered by the researchers when developing energy management techniques for PEVs. Risk averse stochastic energy hub management, maximizing profits in ancillary service markets, power market bidding strategies for fleets of PEVs, energy management of PEVs in the presence of renewable energy in distribution lines or microgrids and loss minimization in distribution networks based on smart coordination approaches using real time energy prices are some of the attractive and novel topics explored in this book. It will be an excellent reference for graduate students, researchers and industry professionals who are interested in getting a snapshot view of today’s latest research on applying various smart energy management strategies for smart grids with high penetration of PEVs.Table of ContentsOverview of Plug-in Electric Vehicles Technologies.- Smart Coordination Approach for Power Management and Loss Minimization in Distribution Networks with PEV Penetration Based on Real Time Pricing.- Plug-in Electric Vehicles Management in Smart Distribution Systems.- An Optimal and Distributed Control Strategy for Charging Plug-in Electrical Vehicles in the Future Smart Grid.- Risk averse energy hub management considering Plug-in Electric Vehicles using Information gap decision theory.- Integration of Distribution Grid Constraints in an Event-driven Control Strategy for Plug-in Electric Vehicles in a Multi-aggregator Setting.- Distributed Load Management using Additive Increase Multiplicative Decrease based Techniques.- Towards a Business Case for Vehicle-to-Grid – Maximizing Profits in Ancillary Service Markets.- Integration of PEVs into Power Markets: A Bidding Strategy for a Fleet Aggregator.- Optimal Control of Plug-in Vehicles Fleets in microgrids.- Energy Management in Microgrids with Plug-in Electric Vehicles, Distributed Energy Resources and Smart Home Appliances.

Wiley Modelling Simulation and Control of TwoWheeled
Book SynopsisEnhanced e-book includes videos Many books have been written on modelling, simulation and control of four-wheeled vehicles (cars, in particular). However, due to the very specific and different dynamics of two-wheeled vehicles, it is very difficult to reuse previous knowledge gained on cars for two-wheeled vehicles. Modelling, Simulation and Control of Two-Wheeled Vehicles presents all of the unique features of two-wheeled vehicles, comprehensively covering the main methods, tools and approaches to address the modelling, simulation and control design issues. With contributions from leading researchers, this book also offers a perspective on the future trends in the field, outlining the challenges and the industrial and academic development scenarios. Extensive reference to real-world problems and experimental tests is also included throughout.
