Book SynopsisThis book provides a design and development perspective MPC for micro-grid control, emphasizing step-by-step conversion of a nonlinear MPC to linear MPC preserving critical aspects of nonlinear MPC. The book discusses centralized and decentralized MPC control algorithms for a generic modern-day micro-grid consisting of vital essential constituents. It starts with the nonlinear MPC formulation for micro-grids. It also moves towards the linear time-invariant and linear time-variant approximations of the MPC for micro-grid control. The contents also discuss how the application of orthonormal special functions can improve computational complexity of MPC algorithms. It also highlights various auxiliary requirements like state estimator, disturbance compensator for robustness, selective harmonic eliminator for eliminating harmonics in the micro-grid, etc. These additional requirements are crucial for the successful online implementation of the MPC. In the end, the book shows how a well-designed MPC is superior in performance compared to the conventional micro-grid primary controllers discussed above. The key topics discussed in this book include – the detailed modeling of micro-grid components; operational modes in micro-grid and their control objectives; conventional micro-grid primary controllers; the importance of MPC as a micro-grid primary controller; understanding of MPC operation; nonlinear MPC formulation; linear approximations of MPC; application of special functions in the MPC formulation; and other online requirements for the MPC implementation. The examples in the book are available both from a calculation point of view and as MATLAB codes. This helps the students get acquainted with the subject first and then allows them to implement the subject they learn in software for further understanding and research.Table of ContentsChapter 1.

World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd Mathematics Of Autonomy: Mathematical Methods For
Book SynopsisMathematics of Autonomy provides solid mathematical foundations for building useful Autonomous Systems. It clarifies what makes a system autonomous rather than simply automated, and reveals the inherent limitations of systems currently incorrectly labeled as autonomous in reference to the specific and strong uncertainty that characterizes the environments they operate in. Such complex real-world environments demand truly autonomous solutions to provide the flexibility and robustness needed to operate well within them.This volume embraces hybrid solutions to demonstrate extending the classes of uncertainty autonomous systems can handle. In particular, it combines physical-autonomy (robots), cyber-autonomy (agents) and cognitive-autonomy (cyber and embodied cognition) to produce a rigorous subset of trusted autonomy: Cyber-Physical-Cognitive autonomy (CPC-autonomy).The body of the book alternates between underlying theory and applications of CPC-autonomy including 'Autonomous Supervision of a Swarm of Robots' , 'Using Wind Turbulence against a Swarm of UAVs' and 'Unique Super-Dynamics for All Kinds of Robots (UAVs, UGVs, UUVs and USVs)' to illustrate how to effectively construct Autonomous Systems using this model. It avoids the wishful thinking that characterizes much discussion related to autonomy, discussing the hard limits and challenges of real autonomous systems. In so doing, it clarifies where more work is needed, and also provides a rigorous set of tools to tackle some of the problem space.

Springer Optimization and Optimal Control in a Nutshell
Book SynopsisThis book concisely presents the optimization process and optimal control process with examples and simulations to help self-learning and better comprehension. It starts with function optimization and constraint inclusion and then extends to functional optimization using the calculus of variations. The development of optimal controls for continuous-time, linear, open-loop systems is presented using Lagrangian and Pontryagin-Hamiltonian methods, showing how to introduce the end-point conditions in time and state. The closed-loop optimal control for linear systems with a quadratic cost function, well-known as the linear quadratic regulator (LQR) is developed for both time-bound and time-unbounded conditions. Some control systems need to maximize performance alongside cost minimization. The Pontryagin''s maximum principle is presented in this regard with clear examples that show the practical implementation of it. It is shown through examples how the maximum principle leads to control switching and Bang-Bang control in certain types of systems. The application of optimal controls in discrete-time open-loop systems with the quadratic cost is presented and then extended to the closed-loop control, which results in the model predictive control (MPC). Throughout the book, examples and Matlab simulation codes are provided for the learner to practice the contents in each section. The aligned lineup of content helps the learner develop knowledge and skills in optimal control gradually and quickly.

Springer Verlag, Singapore Risk Modeling, Analysis and Control of
Book SynopsisThis book focuses on the risk modeling, analysis and control of multi-energy systems considering cross-sectorial failure propagation. Both models and methods have been addressed with engineering practice. This is accomplished by doing a thorough investigation into the modeling of system physics and reliabilities in both long- and short-term phases. Different models and methods to evaluate the risk of multi-energy systems considering various disturbances, e.g., component failures, load uncertainties and extreme weather, are studied in detail. Furthermore, several risk control strategies for multi-energy systems, such as long-term capacity planning and integrated demand response, are analyzed in this book, which is especially suited for readers interested in system risk management. The book can benefit researchers, engineers, and graduate students in the fields of electrical and electronic engineering, energy engineering, complex network and control engineering, etc.Table of ContentsMulti-energy systems and risk issues.- A Framework for Risk Modeling of Integrated Electricity and Gas Systems Utilizing Universal Generating Function Techniques.- Short-Term Risk Evaluation of Integrated Electricity and Gas Systems Considering Dynamics of Gas Flow.- Risk Evaluation of Integrated Electricity and Gas Systems Considering Cascading Effects.- Definitions and Risk Modelling of Two-Interdependent-Performance Multi-State System and its Application for CHP units.- Operational Risk Assessment of Integrated Electricity and Heating Systems with CHP units.- Operational Risk of Multi-Energy Customers Considering Service-Based Self-Scheduling.- Multi-phase Risk Modelling and Evaluation of Multi-energy Systems under Windstorms.- Long-term Reserve Expansion of Integrated Electricity and Gas Systems for Risk Mitigation.- Operational Risk Assessment of Integrated Electricity and Heating Systems with CHP units.
