Abstract: While being able to avoid single point failures, emerging decentralized security techniques are facing new challenges of reliability, robustness, and privacy preservation in ...

Running a nuclear power plant isn’t an easy task, even with the level of automation available to a 1980s Soviet RBMK reactor.

Too often organizations start with PPE instead of eliminating hazards at the source. Applying the Hierarchy of Controls in the correct order is key to sustainable risk reduction and safer workplaces.

More engineers are turning to reinforcement learning to incorporate adaptive and self-tuning control into industrial systems. It aims to strike a balance between traditional ...

Abstract: The Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system is a critical component of building energy consumption, accounting for a significant portion of total energy usage. Given the ...

Abstract: When prescribed performance control (PPC) is implemented for state-constrained control, compact error boundary can easily lead to input saturation, which ...

Abstract: In alignment with decarbonization efforts, there has been widespread global interest in renewable energy sources such as wind and solar, which are connected to the grid via grid-connected ...

Abstract: This article concentrates on the problem of practically time-synchronized tracking control for multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems with unmatched nonlinearities and input saturations.

Abstract: This letter presents the first implementation of differentiable predictive control (DPC) in power electronic systems. By embedding the predictive control cost function directly into a ...

Abstract: Pinching-antenna systems (PASS) present a breakthrough among the flexible-antenna technologies, and distinguish themselves by facilitating large-scale antenna reconfiguration, line-of-sight ...

Abstract: Wireless networked control systems (WNCSs) are critical to Industry 4.0, enabling applications like drone swarms and autonomous robots. The tight interdependence between communication and ...

Abstract: In this note, we present the synthesis of secure-by-construction controllers that address safety and security properties simultaneously in cyber-physical systems. Our focus is on studying a ...
