Modeling and optimal control of growth, energy, and resource dynamics of Hermetia illucens in mass production environment
Murali Padmanabha, Alexander Kobelski, Arne-Jens Hempel +1
Mass production of Hermetia illucens insect larvae is now being adopted in many countries and is taking an industrial production approach. Despite abundant literature on factors th…
Process Optimization of Black Soldier Fly Egg Production via Model Based Control
Alexander Kobelski, Arne-Jens Hempel, Murali Padmanabha +2
Black soldier fly (BSF) larvae (\textit{Hermetia illucens}) are a valuable protein source for manufacturing animal feed. To maximize their production, both the quantity and quality…
Predictive Control with Learning-Based Terminal Costs Using Approximate Value Iteration
Francisco Moreno-Mora, Lukas Beckenbach, Stefan Streif
Stability under model predictive control (MPC) schemes is frequently ensured by terminal ingredients. Employing a (control) Lyapunov function as the terminal cost constitutes a com…
Critical Clearing Time Estimates of Power Grid Faults via a Set-Based Method
Willem Esterhuizen, Gyula Molnár, Tim Aschenbruck +3
This paper is concerned with estimating critical clearing times in the transient stability problem of power grids without extensive time-domain simulations. We consider a highdimen…
A stabilizing reinforcement learning approach for sampled systems with partially unknown models
Lukas Beckenbach, Pavel Osinenko, Stefan Streif
Reinforcement learning is commonly associated with training of reward-maximizing (or cost-minimizing) agents, in other words, controllers. It can be applied in model-free or model-…
High-gain observer for the nitrification process including sensor dynamics
Patrick Schmidt, Arne-Jens Hempel, Stefan Streif
Fertilization is commonly used to increase harvests. The lack of knowledge of soil properties and the excessive use of fertilizers can result in overfertilization. Current sensor t…
