Advanced process control (APC) methods used to be so advanced as to be esoteric—too complex and unusable except by a few high-level experts. Today, however, it seems APC is little talked about for an ...

In this article, I will examine an advanced control method used inside a 5-kW power factor corrector (PFC) for a server. The design uses high-performance GaN FETs to operate the power supplies at the ...

The combination of a new take on an existing qubit design (fluxonium) and the application of advanced control methods applied to an understanding of the underlying physics enabled this result.

Introduction to automotive control systems. Modeling and control methods are presented for: air-fuel ratio, transient fuel, spark timing, idle speed, transmission, cruise speed, anti-lock brakes, ...

China’s robotics startup EngineAI is developing a control method that enables humanoid robots to walk with straight legs, mimicking natural human gait more closely. Though still in the research ...

Advanced process controls have become much easier—and cheaper—to install and maintain thanks to evolving technical developments. Is MPC or Advanced Regulatory Control Right for Me? The “culture of MPC ...

In the award-winning paper, Pao’s team explored how advanced control methods, specifically a model predictive control (MPC) framework, can optimize blade pitch control on wind turbines. Blade pitch ...

The method, described in a study published in the Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation on March 19, 2023, enables more robust and natural walking control for users of lower limb ...

Coal-fired power plants can improve wet limestone scrubbing with advanced process control. One such optimization system reduced house load substantially.

Previous PhD Project examples Offshore Wind Turbine Vibration Suppression and Load Alleviation. Supervisor: Professor Jason Zheng Jiang ([email protected]), This PhD project will focus on using ...
