SAC - Sistemes Avançats de Control
El grup SAC és un grup de recerca de la UPC actiu des del 1990 i l'any 2014 va ser reconegut com a grup de recerca consolidat. Des del seu inici, l'activitat científica del grup gira a l'entorn de temes relacionats amb la Supervisió, Seguretat i el Control Automàtic de sistemes i infraestructures crítiques.
Actualment, l'activitat científica del grup està organitzada a l'entorn dels següents temes:
- Mineria, validació correcció i fusió de dades heterogènies al el suport de informació cognitiva;
- Disseny de sistemes de diagnosis i control tolerants a fallades, resilients i segurs;
- Prognosis per estimar la salut dels sistemes i desenvolupar metodologies de manteniment predictiu.
- Disseny de sistemes de control òptim i gestió optimitzada de la producció
- Planificació de trajectòries i guiatge de vehicles autònoms.
Dins d'aquests àmbits el grup SAC està reconegut internacionalment fet que ho demostra el gran nombre de col·laboracions internacionals que té.
The group aim is to carry out applied research in the following areas: - Modelling, identification and simulation of continuous and discontinuous industrial processes
- Advanced control of dynamic systems
- Optimisation and constraint satisfaction
- Supervision and fault diagnosis of industrial processes and systems
- Fault-tolerant control; and related subjects.
The aim is to devise software applications that increase the reliability and performance of processes and systems on the basis of this research.

Health-aware LPV model predictive control of wind turbines
(2020)
Conference report
Open AccessWind turbine components are subject to considerable stress and fatigue due to extreme environmental conditions to which they are exposed to, especially when located offshore. Interest in the integration of control with ... -
Model-based prognosis approach using a zonotopic Kalman filter with application to a wind turbine
(2020)
Conference report
Open AccessWind turbines generally operate under adverse conditions making them prone to relatively high failure rates. Due to the direct exposure of the blades to dynamic and cyclic loads of wind, the rotor and the blades unsurprisingly ... -
System reconfiguration of large-scale control systems using back-up actuators
(2020)
Conference report
Open AccessThe intrinsic redundancy of large-scale control systems allows to differentiate between the nominal system configuration, where the dynamics of the plant are controlled through a specific subset of actuators, and the ... -

An interactive teaching/learning approach to the design of robust linear control systems using the closed-loop shaping methodology
(2020)
Conference lecture
Open AccessUsually the controller is designed working on the open-loop transfer function. However, it is also possible to design the controller working on the closed-loop transfer functions. The closed-loop shaping methodology o ers ... -
Hinf interactive controller design for teaching purposes
(2020)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyHinf-based controller design is one of the most powerful methodologies for controller design in the frequency domain. Unfortunately, its use requires advanced knowledge of control theory. The use of interactive tools allows ... -
Online network-constrained dispatch of distributed generators in radial networks
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020)
Conference report
Open AccessHigh penetration of distributed generation will be characteristic to future distribution networks. The dynamic, intermittent, uncertain and deregulated nature of distributed generation raises the need for online, distributed ...
