Existing methods for nonlinear robust control often use scenario-based approaches to formulate the control problem as large nonlinear optimization problems. The optimization problems are challenging to solve due to their size, especially if the control problems include time-varyi ...
A class of data-driven control methods has recently emerged based on Willems' fundamental lemma. Such methods can ease the modeling burden in control design but can be sensitive to disturbances acting on the system under control. In this article, we propose a restructuring of the ...
Existing methods for nonlinear robust control often use scenario-based approaches to formulate the control problem as nonlinear optimization problems. Increasing the number of scenarios improves robustness, while increasing the size of the optimization problems. Mitigating the si ...
Buildings are responsible for about a quarter of global energy-related CO 2 emissions. Consequently, the decarbonisation of the housing stock is essential in achieving net-zero carbon emissions. Global decarbonisation targets can be achieved through incre ...
Despite a large body of research, the widespread application of Model Predictive Control (MPC) to residential buildings has yet to be realised. The modelling challenge is often cited as a significant obstacle. This chapter establishes a systematic workflow, from detailed simulati ...
