Modular high-temperature gas-cooled nuclear reactor (MHTGR) has attracted
comprehensive attention for its reliable inherent safety, and an effective control strategy is …

The major concern of modern power plants is changing from tracking control to
environmental and economic issues. The economic model predictive control (EMPC) …

The electric load change of a power unit must be regulated rapidly to achieve power system
stability, and it is increasingly becoming urgent especially that large-scale renewable …

The optimal control design of the boiler-turbine system is vital to ensure feasibility and high
responsiveness over desired load variations. Using the traditional linear control techniques …

The energy per unit time is an important performance indicator in determining the
performance of an underground coal gasification (UCG) site to produce electricity. In …

Modular high-temperature gas-cooled nuclear reactor (MHTGR) is reckoned with the
characteristic of reliable inherent safety, and an effective chattering-free control system is …

To achieve optimal control under all operating conditions for hydropower units, an intelligent
robust controller (NSFLIRC) is proposed based on a novel state space equation and state …

The model-based control of a boiler-turbine system (BTS) is a formidable task due to
coupling in state variables, nonlinearities and constraints on the control inputs. In this paper …

This paper proposes a nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) strategy based on a local
model network (LMN) and a heuristic optimization method to solve the control problem for a …

Structural integrity of large-scale industrial facilities is heavily influenced by their dynamical
changes, that is, by the way how their instationary transients take place. All such facilities are …
