An international research team has tested a hybrid control technique combining adapted perturb and observe (APO) with model-predictive control to address complex partial shading in solar arrays ...

Model Predictive Control (MPC) is a modern feedback law that generates the control signal by solving an optimal control problem at each sampling time. This approach is capable of maximizing a certain ...

Economic Model Predictive Control (EMPC) represents an evolution of traditional control strategies, where the primary objective is to directly optimise an economic cost function rather than merely ...

Applying model-predictive methods and a continuous process-control framework to a continuous tablet-manufacturing process. Currently, there is a high level of interest in the pharmaceutical industry ...

This article presents the development of coordinated control of throttle, spark advance, and variable valve timing (VVT) in a model predictive control (MPC) framework for engine idle speed control ...
