Abstract:
This thesis describes discrete robust adaptive control methods based on using slow sampling and slow adaptation. For the stability analysis, we consider that the plant model order is not exactly known and assume that the estimation model order is lower than the plant model order. A stability condition is derived with a given upper limit for the adaptation gain which is related to a strictly positive real operator. Discussion of the relation between sampling and stability condition is then given. For the robust adaptive control design, we study slow adaptation and predictive control. For the sl

Abstract:
The main exercise of this thesis is the formulation of a mathematical framework for analyzing an existing industrial adaptive control algorithm labeled Model weighting adaptive control (MWAC). The algorithm is then analyzed under this framework. The exercise is complemented by a set of algorithmic additions aimed at solving questions that so far had remained open (e.g. the treatment of undermodelling errors). Those solutions, on the other hand build on results derived from the analysis.<br>A key result for analyzing the algorithm is that when an external excitation is applied (in the form of a

Abstract:
This doctoral thesis focuses on the modification of ACC to include actual driver workload in the context of automatic headway change. ACC is a driver assistance system that automatically maintains a preliminary defined speed and permits a driver to perform manual headway changes. As drivers show worse (brake) reaction times under high workload situations, the system increases headway accordingly. Driver workload is estimated based on physiological data. Here, we investigate the possibilities of such a system, assuming that physiological sensors can be implemented in future vehicles. The thesis
