Abstract:
In this paper, an augmented predictive functional control approach is investigated to design a missile autopilot system, which can be expressed as a linear model with state-dependent coefficient matrices. A novel performance index depending on the reference trajectory, the output prediction and the set-point is proposed to improve the closed-loop dynamic performance. An augmented predictive functional control strategy is designed based on the proposed index and the stability is proven by using the Z-transform. In order to demonstrate the performance of the proposed approach, numerical simulati

Prädiktive (vorausschauende) Regelungen werden vor allem für komplexe Optimalwertregelungen eingesetzt. Die vorgestellte PFC-Regelung (Predictive Functional Control) bietet Algorithmen für Ein- oder Zweigrößensysteme, welche in speicherprogrammierbaren Steuerungen und Prozessleitsystemen einfach implementiert werden können. Der Algorithmus berücksichtigt die vorhandenen Begrenzungen und vermeidet das Integrator-Windup.

Abstract:
Japan is becoming a super-aging society, with a population decrease and a shortage of young workers. Mechanisms using pneumatic cylinders are therefore expected to be useful to perform tasks such as day-to-day work support for elderly people. However, pneumatic cylinder includes large dead time. Thereby, traditional control system is complex, such as adding Smith compensation. Therefore, we use Predictive Functional Control (PFC). This control system is not complex even if plant includes dead time. This study evaluates the performance of force and position control systems using a pneumatic cyl

Abstract:
This thesis presents a development and analysis of a low computation Model Predictive Control (MPC) that is known explicitly as Predictive Functional Control (PFC) for different types of dynamical processes. Since the current concept of PFC suffers from several issues such as the weak efficacy of tuning parameter, conservative constrained solution and poor handling of challenging dynamical systems, the prime objective of this research is to develop novel approaches to tackle these limitations while retaining the simplicity of formulation, coding and tuning of PFC.

Abstract:
An adaptive model predictive control (MPC) method using models derived from orthonormal basis functions is presented. The defining predictor dynamics are obtained from state-space realizations of finite truncations of generalized orthonormal basis functions (GOBF). A structured approach to define multivariable system models with customizable, open-loop stable linear dynamics is presented in Chapter 2. Properties of these model objects that are relevant to the adaptation component of the overall scheme, are also discussed. In Chapter 3, non-adaptive model predictive control policies are present

Furthermore, like all vehicles, the cab also needs to be heated and cooled.

Abstract:
One of the major limitations of functional electrical stimulation (FES) is the rapid onset of muscle fatigue. Minimizing stimulation is the key to decreasing the adverse effects of muscle fatigue caused by FES. Optimal control can be used to compute the minimum amount of stimulation necessary to produce a desired motion. In this paper, a gradient projection-based model predictive controller is used for an approximate optimal control of a knee extension neuroprosthesis. A control Lyapunov function is used as a terminal cost to ensure stability of the model predictive control.
