In this paper we study how to shape temporal pulses to switch a bistable system between its stable steady states. Our motivation for pulse-based control comes from applications in...
In this paper, we propose an interval quadratic programming method for the day-ahead scheduling of power generation and battery charge cycles, where the prediction uncertainty of ...
This paper presents a new distributed control framework to coordinate inverter-interfaced distributed energy resources (DERs) in island microgrids. We show that under bounded load...
In many control applications, it is attractive to describe nonlinear (NL) and time-varying (TV) plants by linear parametervarying (LPV) models and design controllers based on such...
In this paper, we introduce the split-path nonlinear integrator (SPANI) as a novel nonlinear filter designed to improve the transient performance of linear systems in terms of ov...

This paper presents a linear programming approach for the optimal control of nonlinear switched systems where the control is the switching sequence. This is done by introducing mo...
In this demo, we present two possible control interfaces for a robotic extra-finger called the Robotic Sixth Finger. One interface is an instrumented glove able to measure the hu...
Na¨ıve physics [7], or folk physics, is our ability to understand physical phenomena. We regularly use this ability in life to avoid collisions in traffic, follow a tennis ball ...

Blindness dramatically limits quality of life of individuals and has profound implications for the person affected and the society as a whole. Physical mobility and exercises are...

Today’s tracking systems typically require a fixed installation in a room in order to not drift quadratically with time like common inertia measurement units. This makes tracki...
