Abstract: Floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) are subject to undesirable platform motion and a significant increases in fatigue loads compared to their onshore counterparts. We have recently proposed using the fishing line ...

Abstract: This paper is concerned with energy efficient operation of an integral thermal management system (ITMS) for electric vehicles using a nonlinear model predictive control (MPC). Driven by a heat pump (HP), this ITMS can ...

Abstract: Variable refrigerant flow (VRF) system has been an appealing solution of air conditioning for residential and commercial buildings, due to its flexibility and cost effectiveness, while lack of ventilation capability is a ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a nestedloop extremum seeking control (NLESC) scheme for optimizing the energy capture of wind farm that is formed by a wind turbine array along the prevailing wind direction. It has been shown in earlier ...

Abstract: This paper presents a multivariable Newtonbased extremum seeking control (ESC) scheme for efficient operation of a chilledwater plant. A modelicabased dynamic simulation model of the chilledwater plant consists of one screw ...

Abstract: In this paper, we propose a global self-optimizing control (SOC) approach, where nonlinear dynamic model is obtained from historical data of plant operation via the framework of sparse identification of nonlinear dynamics ...
