Multi-objective low-thrust spacecraft trajectory design using reachability analysis
Nikolaus Vertovec, Sina Ober-Blöbaum, Kostas Margellos
One of the fundamental problems in spacecraft trajectory design is finding the optimal transfer trajectory that minimizes the propellant consumption and transfer time simultaneousl…
Safety-Aware Hybrid Control of Airborne Wind Energy Systems
Nikolaus Vertovec, Sina Ober-Blöbaum, Kostas Margellos
A fundamental concern in progressing Airborne Wind Energy (AWE) operations towards commercial success, is guaranteeing that safety requirements placed on the systems are met. Due t…
Verification of safety critical control policies using kernel methods
Nikolaus Vertovec, Sina Ober-Blöbaum, Kostas Margellos
Hamilton-Jacobi reachability methods for safety-critical control have been well studied, but the safety guarantees derived rely on the accuracy of the numerical computation. Thus,…
Improving optimal control of grid-connected lithium-ion batteries through more accurate battery and degradation modelling
Jorn M. Reniers, Grietus Mulder, Sina Ober-Blobaum +1
The increased deployment of intermittent renewable energy generators opens up opportunities for grid-connected energy storage. Batteries offer significant flexibility but are relat…
