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 ...
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 ...
Robust Controller and Fault Diagnoser Design for Linear Systems with Event-based Communication
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In order to improve the effectiveness and safety of control systems, the problem of integrated fault diagnosis and control (IFDC) design has attracted significant attention in the recent years, both in the research and in ...
Q-Learning Based Closed-Loop Control of Anesthesia Administration by Accounting for Hemodynamic Parameter Variations
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Critically ill patients in the intensive care units (ICUs) are often in acutely disturbed state of mind characterized by restlessness, illusions, and nervousness. Such patients, for instance, those who are mechanically ...
Simultaneous fault detection and consensus control design for a network of multi-agent systems
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
The problem of simultaneous fault detection and consensus control (SFDCC) of linear continuous-time multi-agent systems is addressed in this paper. A mixedH?/H-formulation of the SFDCC problem is presented and distributed ...
A dynamic prognosis scheme for flexible operation of gas turbines
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
The increase in energy demand has led to expansion of renewable energy sources and their integration into a more diverse energy mix. Consequently the operation of thermal power plants, which are spearheaded by the gas ...
LPV model development and control of a solution copolymerization reactor
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
In this paper, linear parameter-varying (LPV) control is considered for a solution copolymerization reactor, which takes into account the time-varying nature of the parameters of the process. The nonlinear model of the ...
Reduced LPV Modeling and Control of a Solution Copolymerization Reactor
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Controlling the operation of polymer reactors is a highly important task that aims at maximizing the production rate and the product quality and also minimizing the transition losses due to the high consumer demands, as ...
