Extremum-seeking control for steady-state performance optimization of nonlinear plants with time-varying steady-state outputs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Extremum-seeking control is a useful tool for the steady-state performance optimization of plants for which the dynamics and disturbance situation can be unknown. The case when steady-state plant outputs are constant ... -
Extremum-seeking control: convergence improvements and asymptotic stability
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2016:167, Doctoral thesis, 2016)Extremum-seeking control is an adaptive-control methodology that optimizes the steady-state performance of dynamical plants by automated tuning of plant parameters based on measurements. The main advantage of extremum-seeking ... -

Fast Pressure Control in Managed Pressure Drilling
(Master thesis, 2014)In drilling operations, it is of great importance to efficiently and safely control the pressure in the well. To avoid possible damage to the reservoir, equipment, personnel and the environment, the pressure in the well ... -
Fault detection in glucose control: Is it time to move beyond CGM data?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)People with diabetes mellitus type 1 could benefit from fully automated systems for glucose control. However, faults in any component of the system can severely compromise the safety of the user. An increasing degree of ... -
Fault Detection, Localization and Clearance for MMC based on Indirect Finite Control Set Model Predictive Control
(Chapter, 2023)In this paper, indirect finite control set model predictive control (I-FCS-MPC) is used for detecting, localizing, and tolerating open-circuit failures in the transistors without the use of arm voltage sensors. The fault ... -
Fault diagnosis of downhole drilling incidents using adaptive observers and statistical change detection
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Downhole abnormal incidents during oil and gas drilling cause costly delays, and may also potentially lead to dangerous scenarios. Different incidents will cause changes to different parts of the physics of the process. ... -
Fault Tolerant Control for automated Managed Pressure Drilling
