An efficient condensing algorithm for fast closed loop dual‐mode nonlinear model predictive control

Closed-loop Behavior of Nonlinear Model Predictive Control

Model predictive control (MPC) relies on real-time optimization to determine open-loop control profiles and state estimates given process measurements. When the underlying process model is nonlinear, the MPC system exhibits unique behavior not seen in linear MPC. In this article, we highlight some of the characteristics of nonlinear models in the context of closedloop performance. We examine th...

Efficient Nonlinear Model Predictive Control

The growing interest in model predictive control for nonlinear systems, also called NMPC, is motivated by the fact that today’s processes need to be operated under tighter performance specifications to guarantee profitable and environmentally safe production. One of the remaining essential problems for NMPC is the high on-line computational load. At each sampling instant, a nonlinear optimal co...

An efficient Imperialistic Competitive Algorithm for the closed-loop supply chains considering pricing for product, and fleet of heterogeneous vehicles

 This paper investigates a pricing multi-period, closed-loop supply chains (CLSCs) with two echelons of producers and customers. Products are delivered to customers might be defective which are picked up and gathered in the collection center and will be fixed if it is possible and will be returned to the chain. Otherwise, they are sold as waste. This problem is determining price and distributio...

Improved Optimization Process for Nonlinear Model Predictive Control of PMSM

Model-based predictive control (MPC) is one of the most efficient techniques that is widely used in industrial applications. In such controllers, increasing the prediction horizon results in better selection of the optimal control signal sequence. On the other hand, increasing the prediction horizon increase the computational time of the optimization process which make it impossible to be imple...
