This book was released on 2018 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In automotive industry, driver assistance and active safety features are main areas of research. This thesis concentrates on designing one of the famous ADAS system feature called Adaptive cruise control. Feature development and analysis of various functionalities involved in the system control are done using Petri Nets. A background on the past and current ACC research is noted and taken as motivation. The idea is to implement the adaptive cruise control system in Petri net and analyze how to provide fault tolerance to the system. The system can be evaluated for various cases. The ACC technology implemented in di erent cars were compared and discussed. The interaction of the ACC module with other modules in the car is explained. The cruise system's algorithm in Petri net is used as the basis for developing Adaptive Cruise Control system's algorithm. The ACC system model is designed using Petri nets and various Petri net functionalities like place invariant, transition invariant and reachability tree of the model are analyzed. The results are veri ed using Matlab. Controllers are introduced for ideal cases and are implemented in Petri nets. Then the error cases are considered and fault tolerance techniques are carried out on the model to identify the fault places.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the recent years, a considerable growth in the number of vehicles on the roads has been observed. This increases importance of vehicle safety and of minimization of fuel con- sumption, subsequently prompting manufacturers of cars to equip their products, with more advanced features such as Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Collision Avoidance and Col- lision Warning System (CWS). In this thesis we concentrate on new methods for ACe. This work will include: Design of the simulation models suitable for this application, Investiga- tion and design of suitable hybrid control algorithm by using classical and advanced control algorithm's consisting of the gain scheduling PI and Linear Quadratic (LQ) controllers, De- sign of the Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) and the nonlinear Balance-Based Adaptive Control (B-BAC), Real-time implementation and tests of the algorithms by using NI Lab View Starter Kit Robot from National Instruments, Implementation and tests of the models and the controllers in MA TLAB/Simulink®. The applications of the different control methods in the ACC are tested and compared against different traffic scenarios considering both velocity tracking (CC) and distance track- ing (ACC) modes. Judging about the performance of ACC by utilizing the two advanced control methods; B-BAC and NMPC includes trade-offs between tracking-distance and ve- locity and the vehicle acceleration. However, both the B-BAC and the NMPC has demon- strated significantly smoother responses in controlling the throttle and the brake compared to PI control and linear MPC which in turn could improve the vehicle acceleration and fuel ef- ficiency. The methods in order of producing better performance in terms of the values of control errors and their influences on fuel saving; NMPC, B-BAC, linear MPC and PI con- trol. Improvement of fuel efficiency is investigated in this thesis through two approaches; first, by calculating the optimal control actions corresponding to the throttle and the brake signals through utilising the advanced control methods, second, by reducing the engine speed to idle speed during coast phase of the vehicle which causes the engine friction to be re- duced. The engine speed can be reduced through transition between locked and unlocked states of the torque convertor. Possibility of achieving fuel efficiency through coasting in the vehicle has been investigated in the simulation and it has been demonstrated that longer coasting duration could be achieved i.e. more distance can be covered, and the fuel effi- ciency could be improved.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the dawn of the new millennium, robotics has undergone a major transformation in scope and dimensions. This expansion has been brought about by the maturity of the field and the advances in its related technologies. From a largely dominant industrial focus, robotics has been rapidly expanding into the challenges of the human world. The new generation of robots is expected to safely and dependably co-habitat with humans in homes, workplaces, and communities, providing support in services, entertainment, education, healthcare, manufacturing, and assistance. Beyond its impact on physical robots, the body of knowledge robotics has produced is revealing a much wider range of applications reaching across diverse research areas and scientific disciplines, such as: biomechanics, haptics, neurosciences, virtual simulation, animation, surgery, and sensor networks among others. In return, the challenges of the new emerging areas are proving an abundant source of stimulation and insights for the field of robotics. It is indeed at the intersection of disciplines that the most striking advances happen. The goal of the series of Springer Tracts in Advanced Robotics (STAR) is to bring, in a timely fashion, the latest advances and developments in robotics on the basis of their significance and quality. It is our hope that the wider dissemination of research developments will stimulate more exchanges and collaborations among the research community and contribute to further advancement of this rapidly growing field.

Book Synopsis Principles of Model Checking by : Christel Baier
Download or read book Principles of Model Checking written by Christel Baier and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2008-04-25 with total page 994 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive introduction to the foundations of model checking, a fully automated technique for finding flaws in hardware and software; with extensive examples and both practical and theoretical exercises. Our growing dependence on increasingly complex computer and software systems necessitates the development of formalisms, techniques, and tools for assessing functional properties of these systems. One such technique that has emerged in the last twenty years is model checking, which systematically (and automatically) checks whether a model of a given system satisfies a desired property such as deadlock freedom, invariants, and request-response properties. This automated technique for verification and debugging has developed into a mature and widely used approach with many applications. Principles of Model Checking offers a comprehensive introduction to model checking that is not only a text suitable for classroom use but also a valuable reference for researchers and practitioners in the field. The book begins with the basic principles for modeling concurrent and communicating systems, introduces different classes of properties (including safety and liveness), presents the notion of fairness, and provides automata-based algorithms for these properties. It introduces the temporal logics LTL and CTL, compares them, and covers algorithms for verifying these logics, discussing real-time systems as well as systems subject to random phenomena. Separate chapters treat such efficiency-improving techniques as abstraction and symbolic manipulation. The book includes an extensive set of examples (most of which run through several chapters) and a complete set of basic results accompanied by detailed proofs. Each chapter concludes with a summary, bibliographic notes, and an extensive list of exercises of both practical and theoretical nature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past decade model predictive control (MPC), also referred to as receding horizon control or moving horizon control, has become the preferred control strategy for quite a number of industrial processes. There have been many significant advances in this area over the past years, one of the most important ones being its extension to nonlinear systems. This book gives an up-to-date assessment of the current state of the art in the new field of nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC). The main topic areas that appear to be of central importance for NMPC are covered, namely receding horizon control theory, modeling for NMPC, computational aspects of on-line optimization and application issues. The book consists of selected papers presented at the International Symposium on Nonlinear Model Predictive Control – Assessment and Future Directions, which took place from June 3 to 5, 1998, in Ascona, Switzerland. The book is geared towards researchers and practitioners in the area of control engineering and control theory. It is also suited for postgraduate students as the book contains several overview articles that give a tutorial introduction into the various aspects of nonlinear model predictive control, including systems theory, computations, modeling and applications.

Book Synopsis Model Free Adaptive Control by : Zhongsheng Hou
Download or read book Model Free Adaptive Control written by Zhongsheng Hou and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Model Free Adaptive Control: Theory and Applications summarizes theory and applications of model-free adaptive control (MFAC). MFAC is a novel adaptive control method for the unknown discrete-time nonlinear systems with time-varying parameters and time-varying structure, and the design and analysis of MFAC merely depend on the measured input and output data of the controlled plant, which makes it more applicable for many practical plants. This book covers new concepts, including pseudo partial derivative, pseudo gradient, pseudo Jacobian matrix, and generalized Lipschitz conditions, etc.; dynamic linearization approaches for nonlinear systems, such as compact-form dynamic linearization, partial-form dynamic linearization, and full-form dynamic linearization; a series of control system design methods, including MFAC prototype, model-free adaptive predictive control, model-free adaptive iterative learning control, and the corresponding stability analysis and typical applications in practice. In addition, some other important issues related to MFAC are also discussed. They are the MFAC for complex connected systems, the modularized controller designs between MFAC and other control methods, the robustness of MFAC, and the symmetric similarity for adaptive control system design. The book is written for researchers who are interested in control theory and control engineering, senior undergraduates and graduated students in engineering and applied sciences, as well as professional engineers in process control.

Download or read book Non-linear Predictive Control written by Basil Kouvaritakis and published by IET. This book was released on 2001-10-26 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The advantage of model predictive control is that it can take systematic account of constraints, thereby allowing processes to operate at the limits of achievable performance. Engineers in academia, industry, and government from the US and Europe explain how the linear version can be adapted and applied to the nonlinear conditions that characterize the dynamics of most real manufacturing plants. They survey theoretical and practical trends, describe some specific theories and demonstrate their practical application, derive strategies that provide appropriate assurance of closed-loop stability, and discuss practical implementation.
