Path Planning for Concentric Tube Robots: a Toolchain with Application to Stereotactic Neurosurgery
Matthias K. Hoffmann, Willem Esterhuizen, Karl Worthmann +1
We present a toolchain for solving path planning problems for concentric tube robots through obstacle fields. First, ellipsoidal sets representing the target area and obstacles are…
How much testing and social distancing is required to control COVID-19? Some insight based on an age-differentiated compartmental model
Sara Grundel, Stefan Heyder, Thomas Hotz +3
In this paper, we provide insights on how much testing and social distancing is required to control COVID-19. To this end, we develop a compartmental model that accounts for key as…
Recursive feasibility of continuous-time model predictive control without stabilising constraints
Willem Esterhuizen, Karl Worthmann, Stefan Streif
We consider sampled-data Model Predictive Control (MPC) of nonlinear continuous-time control systems. We derive sufficient conditions to guarantee recursive feasibility and asympto…
Surrogate Models in Bidirectional Optimization of Coupled Microgrids
Manuel Baumann, Sara Grundel, Philipp Sauerteig +1
The energy transition entails a rapid uptake of renewable energy sources. Besides physical changes within the grid infrastructure, energy storage devices and their smart operation…
