Martins, Saligrama Venkatesh, Munther A. Dahleh, Volume: 1, Page 4162 Paper number 1131 Abstract: In this paper, the Kronecker product of matrices is used to achieve the decomposition of finite dimension linear systems into a set of decoupled systems of smaller dimension. A class of systems is specified for which such decomposition can be carried out. Two particular cases of application are studied. CD001131.PDF (From Author) TOP Optimal Maneuver for Multiple Aircraft Conflict Resolution: A Braid Point of View Authors: Jianghai Hu, Maria Prandini, Shankar Sastry, Volume: 1, Page 4164 Paper number 1743 Abstract: In this paper, we study conflict resolution for multiple aircraft encounter situations on a plane. First, the homotopy types of resolution maneuvers for n aircraft encounters are classified according to their images in the joint space-time coordinates, which are shown to bear a one-to-one correspondence with the well-known pure braid group. Energy is then proposed as the cost function for choosing among all conflict-free maneuvers the optimal one. For two aircraft encounters, analytic expressions of the optimal resolution maneuvers are obtained, and for the multiple aircraft case, convex optimization technique is used to find the optimal two-legged resolution maneuver within each type. The introduced solution, however, becomes computationally intractable as the number of aircraft increases. The use of a probabilistic resolution algorithm as ``random type chooser'' is then suggested as a randomized solution to the combinatorial optimization problem. Finally, simulation results are presented for some typical encounters. CD001743.PDF (From Author) TOP Application of Complex Programming to Rescheduling of Transactions in a Deregulated Power Market Authors: Aleksandar M. Stanković, Bernard C. Lesieutre, Alexander Megretski, Volume: 1, Page 4170 Paper number 108 Abstract: In this paper we address the issue of improving transmission security in a deregulated power market. We propose an optimization procedure that assures that transmission security is maintained, and generates minimal corrections in existing contractual transactions that are necessary to ensure security. Our procedure is based on a DC load flow, and as such it is intended as a screening tool, and a source of candidate control actions that will be later refined by a more accurate (AC) model. Our approach may also enable faster calculations of important operational quantities like Available Transfer Capability (ATC). CD000108.PDF (From Author) TOP From the Classical Job Shop to a Real Problem: A Genetic Algorithm Approach Authors: Carlos A. Brizuela, Nobuo Sannomiya, Volume: 1, Page 4174 Paper number 1571 Abstract: This paper has two main goals. One is to point out the gap existing between the classical job shop problem, for which many procedures have been developed, and a real manufacturing problem that generalizes the job shop, highlighting the points needed to be strengthened in order to get more pragmatic results. The second goal is to design an efficient (acceptable solution quality and fast) method to solve a real problem coming from a manufacturing process. The first goal is achieved by a rigorous definition of both problems emphasizing the differences. The second goal is achieved by applying problem-specific knowledge to the schedule construction method. Numerical experiments are presented as a justification of our second achievement. CD001571.PDF (From Author) TOP The Stable Orbit Of The Small Satellite Flying-Around The Space Station And The Orbit Maintenance Authors: Jianbo Hu, Hongye Su, Weimin Wu, Jian Chu, Volume: 1, Page 4181 Paper number 8014 Abstract: The problem of the stable orbit of the small satellite flying around the space station is transformed into the sliding-mode control problem. Then, the sliding-mode controllers are proposed to guarantee the existence of sliding-mode motion, and they are relay-type controllers. Meanwhile, the motion of the small satellite will enter and maintain on the sliding-mode in a finite time, and the stable orbit of the small satellite flying around the space station is obtained. In order to economize the energy and restrain the chatting of control signals, the sliding-mode with dead region is proposed, and the corresponding controllers are derived to make the motion of the closed-loop system enter a defined region. The total influence of the parameters in our controllers to the working performance of the closed-loop system is discussed by simulation. CD008014.PDF (From Author) TOP
