Design of Low-Order Controllers using Optimization Techniques

In many applications, especially in the process industry, low-level controllers are the workhorses of the automated production lines. The aim of this study has been to provide simple tuning procedures, either optimization-based methods or tuning rules, for design of low-order controllers. The first part of this thesis deals with PID tuning. Design methods or both SISO and MIMO PID controllers bas

Low-Rank Distributed Control with Application to Wind Energy

This thesis addresses three different topics in wind power plant operation. Most of the research is focused on controlling a wind farm that is required to meet a power set-point. In this mode of operation, the wind turbines are able to vary their power production as long as the total power demand is met. The research investigates how this freedom can be used in order to reduce the fatigue loads e

Physical Modeling and Control of Low Temperature Combustion in Engines

Popular Abstract in Swedish Fysikalisk modellering och reglering av motorer En stor del av dagens forskning inom förbränningsmotorer är inriktad på att minska bränsleförbrukning och emissioner, utsläpp. De traditionella bensinmotorerna har förhållandevis låga emissionsnivåer medan dieselmotorerna har en lägre bränsleförbrukning. De förbränningskoncept som studeras i avhandlingen Physical ModelingThe topic of this thesis is model-based control of two combustion engine concepts, Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) and Partially Premixed Combustion (PPC), using physics-based models. The studied combustion concepts hold promise of reducing the emission levels and fuel consumption of internal combustion engines. A cycle-to-cycle model of HCCI, including heat losses to the cylinder

Machine Learning and System Identification for Estimation in Physical Systems

In this thesis, we draw inspiration from both classical system identification and modern machine learning in order to solve estimation problems for real-world, physical systems. The main approach to estimation and learning adopted is optimization based. Concepts such as regularization will be utilized for encoding of prior knowledge and basis-function expansions will be used to add nonlinear model

On Automation in Anesthesia

The thesis discusses closed-loop control of the hypnotic and the analgesic components of anesthesia. The objective of the work has been to develop a system which independently controls the intravenous infusion rates of the hypnotic drug propofol and analgesic drug remifentanil. The system is designed to track a reference hypnotic depth level, while maintaining adequate analgesia. This is complicat

MSc thesis UAV

Master thesis suggestion UAV data MSc thesis: UAV data, machine learning, modelling – applications in forestry and agriculture. We have large amounts of UAV and field data over agricultural fields and forests collected within different project that can be used for MSc theses. There are several potential research questions to answer and different methodologies can be applied depending on interest.

Topics in Machining with Industrial Robot Manipulators and Optimal Motion Control

Two main topics are considered in this thesis: Machining with industrial robot manipulators and optimal motion control of robots and vehicles. The motivation for research on the first subject is the need for flexible and accurate production processes employing industrial robots as their main component. The challenge to overcome here is to achieve high-accuracy machining solutions, in spite of the
