Due to support vector regression has good performance in dealing with non-linear data regression problem, in recent years it often was used to predict building energy consumption. Based on the historical data we conclude the relationship between lighting energy consumption and its influencing factors is non-linear. To develop accurate prediction model of lighting energy consumption, the support vector regression with radial basis function was applied. The forecast results indicate that the prediction accuracy of support vector regression is higher than neural networks. The prediction model can forecast the building hourly energy consumption and assess the impact of office building energy management plans.","PeriodicalId":6304,"journal":{"name":"2013 9th Asian Control Conference (ASCC)","volume":"34 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82817085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Successful tests require a robust controller to compensate for unwanted dynamics introduced by supplemental actuators within the physical substructure and to achieve synchronized responses of the numerical and physical parts in real-time. The aim of this feasibility study tries to identify the relative strength and weakness of three types of substructuring control strategy in literature, including (i) emulated-system-based (ii) numerical-substructure-based, and (iii) output-based controllers. The first two controllers are synthesized via conventional dynamics-based approaches, while the third using forward-prediction and curve-fitting concepts is classified as a geometry-based strategy. A practical substructuring example using a shaking-table system is presented for control comparisons. In the presence of uncertainties with the actuators or specimens, simulation studies show that these controllers exhibit distinct robustness in different cases.","PeriodicalId":6304,"journal":{"name":"2013 9th Asian Control Conference (ASCC)","volume":"5 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90050537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The difficulty of performing this process with a robot lies in its lack of rigidity. In order to ensure a better tracking performance, the data such as real positions, velocities of links and external forces are required. However, those variations are not always measured in most industrial robots. Therefore, in this study, an observer is proposed to reconstruct those necessary parameters by using only measurements of motor side. The proposed observer is carried out on a 6 DOF flexible-joint industrial manipulator used in a FSW process.","PeriodicalId":6304,"journal":{"name":"2013 9th Asian Control Conference (ASCC)","volume":"56 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89318955","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, a discrete-time control technique based on Adaptive Feed-forward Cancellation (AFC) is proposed for a three-phase three-wire rectifier with a LCL input filter. The continuous-time design method for resonators has been translated into the discrete-time domain. Thus, the controller has been entirely designed in discrete-time, avoiding approximate conversions of the controller from the continuous-time domain. Besides, the usual unit computational delay in sampled-data control systems is taken into account. The simulation results show that this kind of resonant control is not only robust, but also presents a good performance.","PeriodicalId":6304,"journal":{"name":"2013 9th Asian Control Conference (ASCC)","volume":"26 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86762866","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The matrix R, together with the matrix F, may be both set undetermined and used as degrees of freedom beyond the completely free parameter matrix Z. The results provide great convenience to the computation and analysis of the solutions to this class of equations, and can perform important functions in many control systems analysis and design problems involving second-order dynamical systems.","PeriodicalId":6304,"journal":{"name":"2013 9th Asian Control Conference (ASCC)","volume":"6 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87416658","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed scheme removes this difficulty by considering each parameter sequentially and individually; and provides better convergence as compared to classical multi-model adaptive systems by using an assumption that a decrease in any element of the parameter error vector results in decrease in the state estimation error and vice-versa.","PeriodicalId":6304,"journal":{"name":"2013 9th Asian Control Conference (ASCC)","volume":"14 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88862363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
