  • Noise-Enabled Observability of Nonlinear Dynamic Systems Using the Empirical Observability Gramian
    Noise-Enabled Observability of Nonlinear Dynamic Systems Using the Empirical Observability Gramian Nathan D. Powel A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2016 Reading Committee: Kristi Morgansen, Chair Juris Vagners Mehran Mesbahi Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Aeronautics & Astronautics c Copyright 2016 Nathan D. Powel University of Washington Abstract Noise-Enabled Observability of Nonlinear Dynamic Systems Using the Empirical Observability Gramian Nathan D. Powel Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Kristi Morgansen Aeronautics & Astronautics While control actuation is well understood to influence the observability of nonlinear dy- namical systems, actuation of nonlinear stochastic systems by process noise has received comparatively little attention in terms of the effects on observability. As noise is present in essentially all physically instantiated systems, complete analysis of observability must account for process noise. We approach the problem of process-noise-induced observability through the use of a tool called the empirical observability Gramian. We demonstrate that the empirical observability Gramian can provide a unified approach to observability anal- ysis, by providing sufficient conditions for weak observability of continuous-time nonlinear systems, local weak observability of discrete-time nonlinear systems, and stochastic observ- ability of continuous-time stochastic linear systems with multiplicative noise. The empirical observability Gramian can be used to extend notions of stochastic observability that depend explicitly on linear systems structure to nonlinear stochastic systems. We use Monte Carlo methods to analyze the observability of nonlinear stochastic systems with noise and control actuation. TABLE OF CONTENTS Page List of Figures . iii List of Tables .

  • Energy Saving and Voltage Stabilisation in Urban Electrified Public Transport of Belgrade – Analysis of Simulation Results
    10th International Scientific Conference “Science and Higher Education in Function of Sustainable Development” 06 – 07 October 2017, Mećavnik – Drvengrad, Užice, Serbia ENERGY SAVING AND VOLTAGE STABILISATION IN URBAN ELECTRIFIED PUBLIC TRANSPORT OF BELGRADE – ANALYSIS OF SIMULATION RESULTS Gavrilovic Branislav1, PhD; Bundalo Zoran2, PhD 1 Railway College of Vocational Studies, Belgrade, SERBIA, [email protected] 2 Railway College of Vocational Studies, Belgrade, SERBIA, [email protected] Abstract: The power consumption of a tram is characterized by distinct peaks combined with a low average value. Using an on- board energy storage, the overhead line peak power and energy consumption can be reduced. The storage device introduces a degree of freedom for control of the power flow. To incorporate the freedom an energy management is required. The design of the energy management can be seen as a multi-objective optimization problem with the objectives “minimize line peak power” and “minimize energy consumption”. As common to most multiobjective optimization problems it is not possible to minimize both objectives at the same time. This paper describes new on board energy storage systems applied in the urban electrified public transport in Belgrade (R. Serbia) Keywords: regenerative brak , energy consumption savings 1. INTRODUCTION The urban electrified public transport in Belgrade, employ the low voltage DC systems at 600 V, which are usually the most economic. In this case, the pantograph connects directly the contact line to the power inverters of the train by means of filter capacitors. The average distance between substations is very limited for example, in a subway at 750 V with heavy traffic, it can be of the order of 1.5 km, with minimum values of 1.3 km.

  • Stadt(Ver)Führungen 2018 Programm
    Projektbüro im Kulturreferat Stadt(ver)führungen 1 Wochenende | 800 routen | 8 euro visionen 21. – 23. September 2018 in nürnberg und fürth ARCHITEKTUR VORWORT / INHALTSVERZEICHNIS Visionen Nürnberg macht sich fit für die Zukunft. Und die Kultur dient dabei als Zugpferd; gerade in der Entwicklung einer Vision für eine lebenswerte (Kultur-)Stadt 2025 und darüber hinaus. Überall findet sich Aufbruch: der Bau einer neuen Universi- tät in Nürnberg, die Entwicklung zukunftsweisender Materialien in der Energie- wirtschaft, innovative Robotik in der Chirurgie, virtuelle Museumslandschaften, die Entwicklung einer internationalen Ethik des Völkerrechts, die Untersuchung neuer Formen des städtischen Zusammenlebens in europäischen Forschungs- projekten sowie Wohn- und Arbeitsformen, in denen sich die Menschen gegen- seitig unterstützen und inspirieren. Das Schlagwort „Partizipation“, das gerade bei Zukunftsvisionen erhöhte Bedeutung erlangt, hat in Nürnberg seit der Kulturladenbewegung der 70er Jahre eine gewisse Tradition. Signifikant sind dafür auch Formate wie die Stadt(ver)führungen, die auch in der 19. Auflage wieder sachkundigen Bürgern, bekannten Persönlichkeiten, professionellen Stadtführern sowie engagierten Vereinen und Institutionen Raum geben, ihre Visionen auszudrücken und zu vermitteln. Wesentlich ist die Begegnung der Menschen miteinander bei der klassischen Führung und bei partizi- pativen Formen wie der offenen Probe eines Theaterstücks, dem internationalen Frauenfrühstück, dem Jodelworkshop, der Kreation eigener Visionen im Forschungslabor oder der gemeinsamen Erstellung eines Kunstwerks. Die enorme Bandbreite des Themenspektrums ist den vielen Beteiligten zu verdanken, die sich intensiv für diese Art der Wissensvermittlung engagieren. Ihnen gilt mein herzlicher Dank ebenso wie den Mitarbei- tern im Projektbüro des Kulturreferats und den Förderern für ihre Unterstützung: dem ESW – Evangelisches Siedlungswerk, der VR Bank Nürnberg, den Nürnberger Nachrichten sowie dem Funkhaus Nürnberg.
