Abstract
- Abstract: This work focuses on the development of computationally efficient predictive control algorithms for nonlinear parabolic and hyperbolic PDEs with state and control constraints arising in the context of transport-reaction processes. We first consider a diffusion-reaction process described by a nonlinear parabolic PDE and address the problem of stabilization of an unstable steady-state subject to input and state constraints. Galerkin’s method is used to derive finite-dimensional systems that capture the dominant dynamics of the parabolic PDE, which are subsequently used for controller design. Various model predictive control (MPC) formulations are constructed on the basis of the finite dimensional approximations and are demonstrated, through simulation, to achieve the control objectives. We then consider a convection-reaction process example described by a set of hyperbolic PDEs and address the problem of stabilization of the desired steady-state subject to input and state constraints, in the presence of disturbances. An easily implementable predictive controller based on a finite dimensional approximation of the PDE obtained by the finite difference method is derived and demonstrated, via simulation, to achieve the control objective.
