Designing Barrier Functions for Graceful Safety Control
Yejin Moon, Gabor Orosz, Hosam K. Fathy
This paper examines the problem of achieving "grace" when controlling dynamical systems for safety, which is defined in terms of providing multi-layered safety assurances. Namely,…
Combined Plant and Controller Optimization of an Underwater Energy Harvesting Kite System
Kartik Naik, Sumedh Beknalkar, James Reed +3
This paper presents the formulation and results for a control-aware optimization of the combined geometric and structural design of an energy-harvesting underwater kite. Because ki…
Reducing Road Vehicle Fuel Consumption by Exploiting Connectivity and Automation: A Literature Survey
Miguel Alvarez, Chu Xu, Manuel A. Rodriguez +4
This paper examines the degree to which connectivity and automation can potentially reduce the overall fuel consumption of on-road vehicles. The paper begins with a simulation stud…
Parameter Identification and Sensitivity Analysis for Zero-dimensional Physics-based Lithium-Sulfur Battery Models
Chu Xu, Timothy Cleary, Guoxing Li +2
This paper examines the problem of estimating the parameters of a Lithium-Sulfur (LiS) battery from experimental cycling data. LiS batteries are attractive compared to traditional…
Fisher Identifiability Analysis of Longitudinal Vehicle Dynamics
Aaron Kandel, Mohamed Wahba, Hosam K. Fathy
This paper investigates the theoretical Cramer-Rao bounds on estimation accuracy of longitudinal vehicle dynamics parameters. This analysis is motivated by the value of parameter e…
Distributed Kuramoto Self-Synchronization of Vehicle Speed Trajectories in Traffic Networks
Manuel Rodriguez, Hosam Fathy
