Abstract
This paper presents the formulation, design procedure, and application of a hybrid model predictive control (HMPC) scheme for hybrid systems that is embedded in a mixed logical dynamical (MLD) framework. The proposed scheme adopts a three degrees-of-freedom (3DoF) tuning method to accomplish precise setpoint tracking and ensure robustness in the face of disturbances (both measured and unmeasured) and uncertainty. Furthermore, the HMPC algorithm employs setpoint and disturbance anticipation to proactively enhance controller performance and potentially reduce control effort. Slack variables in the objective function prevent the mixed-integer quadratic problem from becoming infeasible. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated through its application in three distinct case studies, which include control of production–inventory systems, time-varying behavioral interventions for physical activity, and management of epidemics/pandemic prevention. These case studies indicate that the HMPC algorithm can effectively manage hybrid dynamics, setpoint tracking and disturbance rejection in diverse and demanding circumstances, while tuned to perform well in the presence of nonlinearity and uncertainty.
期刊介绍:
Control Engineering Practice strives to meet the needs of industrial practitioners and industrially related academics and researchers. It publishes papers which illustrate the direct application of control theory and its supporting tools in all possible areas of automation. As a result, the journal only contains papers which can be considered to have made significant contributions to the application of advanced control techniques. It is normally expected that practical results should be included, but where simulation only studies are available, it is necessary to demonstrate that the simulation model is representative of a genuine application. Strictly theoretical papers will find a more appropriate home in Control Engineering Practice''s sister publication, Automatica. It is also expected that papers are innovative with respect to the state of the art and are sufficiently detailed for a reader to be able to duplicate the main results of the paper (supplementary material, including datasets, tables, code and any relevant interactive material can be made available and downloaded from the website). The benefits of the presented methods must be made very clear and the new techniques must be compared and contrasted with results obtained using existing methods. Moreover, a thorough analysis of failures that may happen in the design process and implementation can also be part of the paper.
The scope of Control Engineering Practice matches the activities of IFAC.
Papers demonstrating the contribution of automation and control in improving the performance, quality, productivity, sustainability, resource and energy efficiency, and the manageability of systems and processes for the benefit of mankind and are relevant to industrial practitioners are most welcome.
