This paper investigates the use of decentralised control architectures with heterogeneous dynamics for improving performance in large-scale systems. Our focus is on two well-known decentralised approaches; the 'predecessor following' and 'bidirectional' architectures for vehicle platooning. The former, utilising homogeneous control dynamics, is known to face exponential growth in disturbance ampli
Certainty equivalence adaptive controllers are analysed using a “data-driven Riccati equation”, corresponding to the model-free Bellman equation used in Q-learning. The equation depends quadratically on data correlation matrices. This makes it possible to derive simple sufficient conditions for stability and robustness to unmodeled dynamics in adaptive systems. The paper is concluded by short rema
The strategy of pre-training a large model on a diverse dataset, then fine-tuning for a particular application has yielded impressive results in computer vision, natural language processing, and robotic control. This strategy has vast potential in adaptive control, where it is necessary to rapidly adapt to changing conditions with limited data. Toward concretely understanding the benefit of pre-tr
The advances in highly automated and autonomous transportation systems over the last decade have generated great interest in topics in the safe navigation of land vehicles. With distributed control strategies employed in the majority of applications of autonomous vehicles, such as traffic and formation control, the much-required resilience takes the form of fault-tolerance with respect to informat
This letter presents and analyzes an adaptive data-driven controller that learns the optimal processing rate in a multi-unit processing network in the presence of disturbances. We formulate an optimization problem of linear cost, linear dynamics for the processing network model and an affine constraint on the dispatcher policy. A data-driven linear equation is constructed, based on which the onlin
We present a method for optimal control with respect to a linear cost function for positive linear systems with coupled input constraints. We show that the Bellman equation giving the optimal cost function and resulting sparse state feedback for these systems can be stated explicitly, with the solution given by a linear program. Our framework admits a range of network routing problems with underly
Human–robot collaboration (HRC) in manufacturing environments requires that physical safety can be guaranteed. Control methods that implicitly regulate the interaction forces between a controlled robot and its environment, such as impedance control, are often used for safety in HRC. However, these methods could be complemented by restricting the robot operational space for additional safety guaran
In this paper, an iterative learning strategy was developed to improve trajectory tracking for an impedance-controlled robot manipulator. In this learning strategy, an update law was proposed to modify the Cartesian reference of an impedance controller. Also, the conditions that ensure its convergence considering the dynamics of the robot were derived. Finally, an experimental evaluation was perfo
We study dynamical optimal transport of discrete time systems (dDOT) with Lagrangian cost. The problem is approached by combining optimal control and Kantorovich duality theory. Based on the derived solution, a first order splitting algorithm is proposed for numerical implementation. While solving partial differential equations is often required in the continuous time case, a salient feature of ou
We investigate optimal mass transport problem of affine-nonlinear dynamical systems with input and density constraints. Three algorithms are proposed to tackle this problem, including two Uzawa-type methods and a splitting algorithm based on the Douglas-Rachford algorithm. Some preliminary simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of our approaches.
The problem of substructure characteristic modes is developed using a scattering matrix-based formulation, generalizing subregion characteristic mode decomposition to arbitrary computational tools. It is shown that the modes of the scattering formulation are identical to the modes of the classical formulation based on the background Green’s function for lossless systems under conditions where both
This thesis contributes to the understanding of sustainability-oriented technological innovation (SOTI) by applying an innovation ecosystem perspective. The aim is to explore how interactions between actors shape SOTI and how these interactions enable or constrain adoption in practice. To address this purpose, a qualitative case study was conducted within the Swedish agri-food innovation ecosystem
Generative AI promises substantial productivity gains, but many initiatives fail. This column argues that outcomes depend on readiness, not technology alone. We examine AI transformation requirements across organizational, individual, and technological dimensions, highlighting why engineering practices, human factors, and strategic clarity determine success.
The theory of optimal control on positive cones has recently identified several new problem classes where the Bellman equation can be solved explicitly, in analogy with classical linear quadratic control. In this paper, the idea is extended to minimax adaptive control, yielding exact solutions to instances of the Bellman equation for dual control. In particular, this allows for optimization of the
