A differential game approach to urban drainage systems control
(2016)
Conference report
Open AccessUrban drainage systems (UDSs) are complex large-scale systems that carry stormwater and wastewater throughout urban areas. During heavy rain scenarios, UDSs are not able to handle the amount of extra water that enters the ... -
Co-simulation for the design of controllers in urban drainage systems
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2015)
Conference report
Open AccessA co-simulation framework that uses two software tools (i.e., Matlab, Python or LabVIEW, and SWMM) is presented. The co-simulation is performed thanks to a tool that has been developed, and which is the main contribution ... -

Open AccessThe 3th IEEE Colombian Conference on Automatic Control 2017 (CCAC) was held October 18-20th, 2017 at the Corales de Indias Hotel, Cartagena de Indias, Colombia. The conference was preceded by a day devoted to four technical ... -
Constrained distributed optimization : A population dynamics approach
(2016-07)
Article
Open AccessLarge-scale network systems involve a large number of states, which makes the design of real-time controllers a challenging task. A distributed controller design allows to reduce computational requirements since tasks are ... -
Constrained distributed optimization based on population dynamics
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2014)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper proposes a novel methodology for solving constrained optimization problems in a distributed way, inspired by population dynamics and adding dynamics to the population masses. The proposed methodology divides the ... -
Control of urban drainage systems: optimal flow control and deep learning in action

Open AccessA hierarchical control strategy is proposed to solve the optimal drainage problem in sewer systems by combining an optimization technique known as minimum scaled consensus control (MSCC) with the deep deterministic policy ... -
Data-driven decentralized algorithm for wind farm control with population-games assistance
(2019)
Article
Open AccessIn wind farms, the interaction between turbines that operate close by experience some problems in terms of their power generation. Wakes caused by upstream turbines are mainly responsible of these interactions, and the ... -

Part of book or chapter of book
Open AccessThis book presents a set of approaches for the real-time monitoring and control of drinking-water networks based on advanced information and communication technologies. It shows the reader how to achieve significant ... -
Decentralized charging coordination of electric vehicles using multi-population games
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020)
Conference report
Open AccessThis paper addresses the decentralized charging coordination of a fleet of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs). In particular, we cast the charging coordination task as a constrained multi-objective optimization problem, and ... -
Decentralized control for urban drainage systems via population dynamics : Bogota case study
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2015)
Conference report
Open AccessControl of Urban Drainage Systems (UDS) is studied for cases in which the distribution of run–off through the channels of a system is inefficient, i.e. when the capacity of some structures is not used optimally. In this ... -
Distributed control of drinking water networks using population dynamics: Barcelona case study
