Enlarging the domain of attraction of MPC controller using invariant sets
(Elsevier, 2002)
This paper presents a method for enlarging the domain of attraction of nonlinear model predictive control (MPC). The useful way of guaranteeing stability of nonlinear MPC is to add a terminal constraint and a terminal cost ...

A multicriteria risk-based dss for bidding using mixed integer programming
(Elsevier, 2003)
This work presents a Decision Support System to provide help in bidding processes. This phase of the project is characterised by a high level of uncertainty and it involves a huge expense in the preparation of the proposal ...

Combining Heuristics in Assembly Sequence Planning
(IOS Press, 2005)
Assembly Sequence Planning is tackled by modelling and solving a planning problem that considers the execution of the plan in a system with multiple assembly machines. The objective of the plan is the minimization of the ...

Min-Max Predictive Control of a Pilot Plant using a QP Approach
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2008)
The practical implementation of min-max MPC (MMMPC) controllers is limited by the computational burden required to compute the control law. This problem can be circumvented by using approximate solutions or upper bounds ...

Very high-energy γ-ray observations of the Crab nebula and other potential sources with the GRAAL experiment
(Elsevier, 2002)
The “γ-ray astronomy at Almeria” (GRAAL) experiment uses 63 heliostat-mirrors with a total mirror area of ≈2500 m2 from the CESA-1 field at the “Plataforma Solar de Almeria” to collect Cherenkov light from air showers. The ...

Robust Model Predictive Control for Spacecraft Rendezvous with Online Prediction of Disturbance Bounds
(Elsevier, 2009)
A Model Predictive Controller is introduced to solve the problem of rendezvous of spacecraft, using the HCW model and including additive disturbances and line-of-sight constraints. It is shown that a standard MPC is not ...

Input variable selection for forecasting models
(Elsevier, 2002)
The selection of input variables plays a crucial role when modelling time series. For nonlinear models there are not well developed techniques such as AIC and other criteria that work with linear models. In the case of ...
