Optimal control of midazolam infusion for post operative patients in intensive care units
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
The critical task of anesthesia administration demands minimal drug titration by considering patient specific features and sedation requirements. Though there exist several sedation assessment monitors, physicians still ...
Suboptimal control reconfiguration in switched multi-agent networked systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this work, the control recovery problem in a directed network of switched multi-agent systems is studied. A distributed cooperative control strategy is proposed which ensures that the agents reach a consensus while the ...
Fault detection of infinite dimensional systems in presence of disturbances
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this brief paper we are concerned with the fault detection (FD) problem of single-input multi-output infinite dimensional (Inf-D) systems. We develop a geometric methodology to detect a fault in presence of a disturbance ...
An efficient component map generation method for prediction of gas turbine performance
(
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Improving efficiency, reliability and availability of gas turbines have become more than ever one of the main areas of interest in gas turbine research. This is mainly due to the stringent environmental regulations that ...
Design of a hydraulic ankle-foot orthosis
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents the design and simulation of an ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) to assist human walking. Design requirements were established based on a quantitative study of published data, simulations of human walking, and ...
Embedding of nonlinear systems in a linear parameter-varying representation
(
IFAC Secretariat
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
This paper introduces a systematic approach to synthesize linear parameter-varying (LPV) representations of nonlinear (NL) systems which are originally defined by control affine state-space representations. The conversion ...
The characterization of the kinematic and dynamic properties of the ankle joint for an artificial ankle joint design
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The kinematic and dynamic properties of the ankle joint (talocrural region) in normal subjects provide important information for the design of rehabilitation robots, below-knee prostheses, ankle-foot orthoses, and exoskeletons. ...
A kernel-based approach to MIMO LPV state-space identification and application to a nonlinear process system
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This paper first describes the development of a nonparametric identification method for linear parameter-varying (LPV) state-space models and then applies it to a nonlinear process system. The proposed method uses kernel-based ...
Forecasting the health of gas turbine components through an integrated performance-based approach
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this study, we present an integrated method for detecting and forecasting the health of gas turbine components as degraded over time. An advanced model-based real time performance adaptation approach is developed for ...
Closed-loop control of anesthesia and mean arterial pressure using reinforcement learning
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
General anesthesia is required for patients undergoing surgery as well as for some patients in the intensive care units with acute respiratory distress syndrome. How-ever, most anesthetics affect cardiac and respiratory ...
