BIC – Identification of Bioreactors
The student’s main job will be code algorithms to identify models of Anaerobic Bioreactors. The student must be familiar with Numerical Methods and we give preference to students from the Mathematic's Bachelor Program. Application to this [...]
MSc scholarship – DD Smart Grids control
Smart Grids (SG) are the new paradigm in energy production and management which brings as much opportunities for building an energy efficiency society as it raises technical challenges. In a SG a large number of [...]
MSc scholarship – DD modeling of the human lung
Measurements of biosignals from the human body has a huge and ever widening range of applications. The mathematical description of the processes generating these biosignals provides a deeper understanding of their functioning and thus opens [...]
MSc scholarship – DD Modeling of Biotech Processes
Good dynamic models are fundamental for the conception, operation and optimization of any complex system, and bioreactors are no exception to this rule. For operation of a given bioreactor, precise prediction of the reactor's output is the [...]
TCC – Practical application of DD methods for NMP systems
Some DD methods can be used to design controllers for NMP systems, thanks to some extensions that have been proposed in the literature and by our group. A TCC (final undergraduate project) in Electrical/Computer Engineering [...]
TCCs – coding and validation of DD methods
The industry acceptance of DD adaptive control methods depends strongly on their efficient implementation in an appropriate SW/HW platform. Your TCC (final undergraduate project) in Electrical Engineering or in Control/Automation Engineering can contribute to the [...]
TCCs – HW/SW platforms for System Identification
System Identification is a fundamental phase of an automated system's life-cycle, as most system's tasks (regulatory control, MPC, contingency managing, etc) rely on an accurate models. System Identification can be a very costly procedure for [...]
BIC – Extensions to the ideal controller identification method
The student’s main job will be the digital simulation and practical implementation of control systems, where the controller is designed using the controller identification method. Simulation of the control systems are going to be done [...]
BIC – Computational aspects of system's modeling and control
The student's mains task will be the coding and validation of the identification and control auto-tuning methods developed within the scope of this project. These methods are initially developed and tested in MATLAB and must be [...]
BIC – modeling and control of biotech processes
The student's main job will be the digital simulation of biotechnological processes and data collection and manipulation in a bioreactor. More specifically, these tasks consist of: - Simulation of control systems using MATLAB / SIMULINK. [...]
MSc scolarship – the delta operator in DD control
The delta operator is an alternative to the shift operator commonly used for representation of sampled-data systems. It has a number of well-known conceptual and numerical advantages and some very convenient implications of its use [...]
MSc scolarship – fully automated DD
In DD control design, once the reference model has been chosen the design follows a well specified algorithm, and thus is completely automated. The choice of reference model must express mathematically either one or some [...]
