Optimal Control of Pandemic Dynamics via Model Predictive Control: A Health-Economic Trade-off Analysis

Lokman Rachid Melhani, Lars Grune, Antonino Sferlazza +3

This paper addresses the optimal control of epidemic dynamics under conflicting socio-economic objectives. We propose an economic Model Predictive Control (MPC) framework, applied…

A Nine-Compartment Nonlinear Epidemic Model with Spline-Based Identification of Time-Varying Transmission and Vaccination Dynamics: Application to the COVID-19 Third Wave in Italy

Lokman Rachid Melhani, Antonino Sferlazza, Lars Grüne +6

We develop a nine-compartment nonlinear epidemic model incorporating two co-circulating viral strains (ancestral I1 and the Alpha variant B.1.1.7 I2, which is 43-90% more transmiss…

Closed-loop analysis of linear stochastic MPC with risk-averse constraints

Jonas Schießl, Ruchuan Ou, Michael H. Baumann +2

Chance constraints are widely used in stochastic model predictive control (MPC) to enforce probabilistic state and input constraints in the presence of unbounded disturbances. Howe…

Structure preserving properties of higher order moment closures for TASEP

Kilian Pioch, Lars Grüne, Thomas Kriecherbauer +1

The totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) is a stochastic model for the unidirectional flow of interacting particles on a 1D-lattice that is much used in systems biol…

Decaying Sensitivity of the Zero Solution for a Class of Nonlinear Optimal Control Problems

Lars Grüne, Mario Sperl

We study spatial decay properties of sensitivities in a nonlinear optimal control problem with a graph-structured interaction topology. For a problem with nonlinear decoupled dynam…

A turnpike property in an eigenvalue optimization problem

Adam Kaminer, Thomas Kriecherbauer, Lars Grüne +1

We consider a constrained eigenvalue optimization problem that arises in an important nonlinear dynamical model for mRNA translation in the cell. We prove that the ordered list of…
