Urban drainage networks (UDN) carry urban wastewater to wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) in order to regenerate it before releasing it to the environment. Combined UDN (CUDN) carry both rain and wastewater together, which ...

Drinking water utilities in urban areas are facing new challenges in their real-time operation: limited water resources, intensive energy requirements, a growing population, a costly and ageing infrastructure, increasingly ...

This paper addresses the post-fault selection of an actuators configuration for flow-based networks with back-up components. The proposed reconfiguration methodology consists of an offline and an online phase. On the one ...

This paper proposes robust economic model predictive control based on a periodicity constraint for linear systems subject to unknown-but-bounded additive disturbances. In this economic MPC design, a periodic steady-state ...

This paper proposes a set-based approach for robust fault estimation of discrete-time descriptor systems. The considered descriptor systems are subject to unknown-but-bounded uncertainties (state disturbances and measurement ...

This paper proposes a robust periodic economic model predictive control (MPC) using probabilistic set invariance for discrete-time descriptor systems. The considered systems are affected by additive disturbances that are ...

This paper proposes a set-membership state estimator and a zonotopic Kalman observer for discrete-time descriptor systems. Both approaches are developed in a set-based context considering system disturbances, measurement ...

In this paper, a multi-layer model predictive control (MPC) with temporal multi-level coordination for regional water supply systems is proposed. First, a multi-layer control structure resulting from a functional decomposition ...

This paper presents a signal analysis methodology to validate (detect) and reconstruct the missing and false data of a large set of flow meters in the telecontrol system of a water distribution network. The proposed ...

This paper proposes a robust fault detection observer based on zonotopes for discrete-time uncertain systems with sensor faults and unknown but bounded uncertainties. The main advantage of this method is that the observer ...
