Abstract:

Cette thèse est divisée en deux parties. Dans la première partie, nous étudions des problèmes de contrôle optimal déterministes avec contraintes et nous nous intéressons à des questions d'analyse de sensibilité. Le point de vue que nous adoptons est celui de l'optimisation abstraite; les conditions d'optimalité nécessaires et suffisantes du second ordre jouent alors un rôle crucial et sont également étudiées en tant que telles. Dans cette thèse, nous nous intéressons à des solutions fortes. De façon générale, nous employons ce terme générique pour désigner des contrôles localement optimaux pou

Abstract:

A bilinear formulation is used for developing the time finite element method (TFM) to obtain transient responses of both linear, nonlinear, damped and undamped systems. Also the formulation, used in the h-, p- and hp-versions, is extended and found to be readily amenable to multi-degree-of-freedom systems. The resulting linear and nonlinear algebraic equations for the transient response are differentiated to obtain the sensitivity of the response with respect to various design parameters. The present developments were tested on a series of linear and nonlinear examples and were found to yield,

An existing mathematical model of ordinary differential equations was studied to better understand the interactions between hepatitis C virus (HCV) and the immune system cells in the human body. Three possible qualitative scenarios were explored: dominant CTL response, dominant antibody response, and coexistence. Additionally, a sensitivity analysis was carried out to rank model parameters for each of these scenarios. Therapy was addressed as an optimal control problem. Numerical solutions of optimal controls were computed using a forward-backward sweep scheme for each scenario. Model paramete

Driven by environmental protection, economic factors, conservation of energy resources, and technical challenges, the microgrid has emerged as an innovative small-scale power generation network. Microgrids consist of a cluster of Distributed Generation units that encompass a portion of an electric power distribution system and may rely on different energy sources. Functionally, the microgrid is required to provide adequate levels and quality of power to meet load demands. The issue of power quality is significant as it directly affects the characteristics of the microgrid’s operation. This pro

<p>This thesis is based on studies of the deregulated electricity markets located in the United States of America. The problem statement of the thesis evolved continuously throughout our initial period of research. Focus was finally put on monitoring and detection of potential market power caused by congestion in the transmission network. The existence of market power is a serious concern in today’s electric energy markets. A system that monitors the trading is needed and much research and many proposals on how to deal with this problem have been introduced over the years. We focus on some of

Abstract:

Previous work has demonstrated the benefit of grouping actuators to increase the controllability of an active control system, without increasing the number of control channels. By driving two or more secondary sources with the same control input, one is also able to reduce the hardware cost and complexity. In this work, a time domain cost function is developed for on-line actuator grouping and active structural acoustic control (ASAC) of a simply-supported beam excited with a broadband disturbance. Three PZT actuators are mounted on the beam structure to control the wavenumber components cor

To this end, sensitivity analysis was applied to show how the system is affected for each of its components considered in the linear model. This sensitivity analysis leads to criteria that can be used to choose the best values for the parameters to achieve a wide bandwidth and a good disturbance rejec

Stress induced hyperglycaemia is prevalent in critical care. Since the landmark paper published by Van den Berghe et al.
