Dynamic modeling, control aspects and model predictive control of a parafoil and payload system

Creator:

Slegers, Nathan J.

Abstract:

Control issues are investigated for a parafoil and payload system with left and right parafoil brakes used as the control mechanism. It is shown through dynamic modeling and simulation that parafoil and payload systems can exhibit two basic modes of lateral control, namely, roll and skid steering. Using a small...

Clearing bubble blockages in micro channels using a model predictive controller

Creator:

Patton, Chris

Abstract:

Micro scale systems are being utilized in a wide variety of chemical, biological and heat exchanger applications, but suffer from the development of vapor bubbles inside the microchannels due to convective boiling, leading to decreases in system performance. In this work, a simulation-based control strategy is employed to eliminate flow...

Adaptive methods for robust commercial vehicle control

Creator:

Junell, Jaime L.

Abstract:

This thesis explores the implementation of learning based control with predictive cruise control and the potential this technology has for increasing fuel efficiency while keeping on a well maintained schedule for commercial trucks. Traditional cruise control is wasteful when maintaining a constant velocity over rolling hills. Predictive cruise control is...
