This paper presents an alternative adaptive parameter estimation framework for nonlinear systems with time-varying parameters. Unlike existing techniques that rely on the polynomial approximation of time-varying parameters, ...

Since most of fuel cell models are generally nonlinearly parameterized functions, existing modeling techniques rely on the optimization approaches and impose heavy computational costs. In this paper, an adaptive online ...

Non-deterministic generation from renewable sources have resulted in the incorporation energy storage systems in modern grids. Management of energy between different storage elements need to done optimally to ensure efficient ...

This work proposes a new repetitive controller for discrete-time finite-frequency positive-real systems which are required to track periodic references or to attenuate periodic disturbances. The main characteristic of the ...

Linear control systems are subject to design constraints. Most of these constraints are intrinsic properties of linear systems which can be explained in terms of complex variable theory. In this work a tool designed to ...

Repetitive Control includes an Internal Model with high gain and slow time response characteristics which make it prone to the windup effect. A solution to this problem is the inclusion of an Anti-Windup compensator. ...

Hybrid platforms powered by fuel cell and supercapacitor represent a powertrain with active state-dependent constraints, providing an adverse scenario for the energy management. In these platforms, the performance of the ...

This work proposes and studies a new internal model for discrete-time passive or finite-frequency positive-real systems which can be used in repetitive control designs to track or to attenuate periodic signals. The main ...

The control of the output fluid temperature in a distributed solar collector field implies accounting for the excitement of its intrinsic resonance modes. Resonance mode frequencies are related to the residence time of the ...
