Viability under Degraded Control Authority
Hamza El-Kebir, Richard Berlin, Joseph Bentsman +1
In this work, we solve the problem of quantifying and mitigating control authority degradation in real time. Here, our target systems are controlled nonlinear affine-in-control evo…
Minimally Invasive Live Tissue High-fidelity Thermophysical Modeling using Real-time Thermography
Hamza El-Kebir, Junren Ran, Yongseok Lee +7
We present a novel thermodynamic parameter estimation framework for energy-based surgery on live tissue, with direct applications to tissue characterization during electrosurgery.…
Infinite-Dimensional Adaptive Boundary Observer for Inner-Domain Temperature Estimation of 3D Electrosurgical Processes using Surface Thermography Sensing
Hamza El-Kebir, Junren Ran, Martin Ostoja-Starzewski +3
We present a novel 3D adaptive observer framework for use in the determination of subsurface organic tissue temperatures in electrosurgery. The observer structure leverages pointwi…
Physics-based Learning of Parameterized Thermodynamics from Real-time Thermography
Hamza El-Kebir, Yongseok Lee, Joseph Bentsman
Progress in automatic control of thermal processes and real-time estimation of heat penetration into live tissue has long been limited by the difficulty of obtaining high-fidelity…
Lodestar: An Integrated Embedded Real-Time Control Engine
Hamza El-Kebir, Joseph Bentsman, Melkior Ornik
In this work we present Lodestar, an integrated engine for rapid real-time control system development. Using a functional block diagram paradigm, Lodestar allows for complex multi-…
