  • Set-based estimation of battery end of discharge for electric vehicles 

    Zhang, Shuang; Puig Cayuela, Vicenç; Ifqir, Sara (Elsevier, 2024)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    This paper proposes a robust end-of-discharge prognosis procedure for the battery system of electric vehicles. As the state-of-charge of the battery system is dependent on an unmeasurable state of the vehicle lateral ...
  • Nodal hydraulic head estimation through Unscented Kalman Filter for data-driven leak localization in water networks

  • Non-linear distributed MPC coordination of autonomous vehicles using optimality condition decomposition 

    Facerías Pelegrí, Marc; Puig Cayuela, Vicenç; Stancu, Alexandru (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2024)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    In this paper, a novel non-linear distributed MPC coordination scheme for autonomous vehicles based on the Optimality Condition Decomposition (OCD) algorithm is proposed. As result, a local planner for each vehicle is ...
  • Leak learning for graph-based state interpolation in water distribution networks 

    Romero Ben, Luis; Cembrano Gennari, Gabriela; Puig Cayuela, Vicenç (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2024)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    Graph-based state interpolation (GSI) is a state-of-the-art state reconstruction technique that operates over water distribution networks (WDN). This method retrieves the complete hydraulic state (nodal heads) of the network ...

    Jamii, Jannet; Nasri, Romdhan; Mansouri, Majdi; Mimouni, Mohamed Faouzi; Afi, Zouhair; Puig Cayuela, Vicenç (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2024)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    The safe and reliable operation of autonomous vehicles heavily relies on the precise identification and diagnosis of faults within their systems. Multiscale Kernel Principal Component Analysis (MSKPCA) model is well ...
  • Distributed set-based localisation in autonomous vehicles 

    Facerías Pelegrí, Marc; Puig Cayuela, Vicenç; Stancu, Alexandru (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2024)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    In this paper, a novel distributed set-based localisation algorithm for autonomous vehicles based on zonotopes is proposed. The proposed approach structurally allows embedding data fusion locally and in a vehicle-to-vehicle ...
  • Coordination of autonomous vehicles using a mixed-integer LPV-MPC planner 

    Samada Rigo, Sergio Emil; Puig Cayuela, Vicenç; Nejjari Akhi-Elarab, Fatiha; Sarrate Estruch, Ramon (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2024)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    This work addresses the problem of coordinating multiple autonomous vehicles. In particular, an optimal planner based on Model Predictive Control (MPC) is designed for each vehicle, using the linear parameter-varying (LPV) ...

    Conference report
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    Electrolyte imbalance is the main cause of capacity loss in Vanadium Flow Batteries (VFB). Imbalance can be classified into “stoichiometric imbalance” (or “mass imbalance”) and “faradaic imbalance” (or “oxidative/reductive ...
