This paper presents a new nonlinear model predictive control (MPC) algorithm for Hammerstein systems subject to constraints on the state, input, and intermediate variable. Taking no account of constraints, a desired linear controller of the intermediate variable is obtained by applying pole placement to the linear subsystem. Then, actual control actions are determined in consideration of constraints by online solving a finite horizon optimal control problem, where only the first control is calculated and others are approximated to reduce the computational demand. Moreover, the asymptotic stability can be guaranteed in certain condition. Finally, the simulation example of the grade transition control of industrial polypropylene plants is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the results proposed here.

To precisely track the reactor temperature in the entire working condition, the constrained Hammerstein-Wiener model describing nonlinear chemical processes such as in the continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) is proposed. A predictive control algorithm based on the Kalman filter for constrained Hammerstein-Wiener systems is designed. An output feedback control law regarding the linear subsystem is derived by state observation. The size of reaction heat produced and its influence on the output are evaluated by the Kalman filter. The observation and evaluation results are calculated by the multistep predictive approach. Actual control variables are computed while considering the constraints of the optimal control problem in a finite horizon through the receding horizon. The simulation example of the CSTR tester shows the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed algorithm.

This paper considers kinematics and dynamics of Remotely Operated Underwater Vehicle (ROV) to control position, orientation and velocity of the vehicle. Cascade control technique has been applied in this paper. The pole placement technique is used in inner loop of kinematics to stabilize the vehicle motions. Model Predictive control is proposed and applied in outer loop of vehicle dynamics to maintain position and velocity trajectories of ROV. Simulation results carried out on ROV shows the good performance and stability are achieved by using MPC algorithm, whereas sliding mode control loses its stability when ocean currents are high. Implementation of proposed MPC algorithm and stabilization of vehicle motions is the main contribution in this paper.

This paper investigates the application of a method to find the cost function or the weight matrices to be used in model predictive control (MPC) such that the MPC has the same performance as a predesigned linear controller in state-feedback form when constraints are not active. This is potentially useful when a successful linear controller already exists and it is necessary to incorporate the constraint-handling capabilities of MPC. This is the case for a wave energy converter (WEC), where the maximum power transfer law is well-understood. In addition to solutions based on numerical optimization, a simple analytical solution is also derived for cases with a short prediction horizon. These methods are applied for the control of an empirically-based WEC model. The results show that the MPC can be successfully tuned to follow an existing linear control law and to comply with both input and state constraints, such as actuator force and actuator stroke.

An analytical model predictive control (MPC) tuning method for multivariable first-order plus fractional dead time systems is presented in this paper. First, the decoupling condition of the closed-loop system is derived, based on which the considered multivariable MPC tuning problem is simplified to a pole placement problem. Given such a simplification, an analytical tuning method guaranteeing the closed-loop stability as well as pre-specified time-domain performance is developed. Finally, simulation examples are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
