A new linear model predictive control (MPC) algorithm in a state-space framework is presented based on the fusion of two past MPC control laws: steady-state optimal MPC (SSOMPC) and Laguerre optimal MPC (LOMPC). The new controller, SSLOMPC, is demonstrated to have improved feasibility, tracking performance and computation time than its predecessors. This is verified in both simulation and practical experimentation on a quadrotor unmanned air vehicle in an indoor motion-capture testbed. The performance of the control law is experimentally compared with proportional-integral-derivative (PID) and linear quadratic regulator (LQR) controllers in an unconstrained square manoeuvre. The use of soft control output and hard control input constraints is also examined in single and dual constrained manoeuvres. 相似文献

In the present study, complexes of vanillin with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) were prepared by the freeze-drying method. The formation of the inclusion complex was confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). DSC thermograms indicated that the endothermic peak of vanillin and the physical mixture of vanillin with β-CD, due to the melting of vanillin crystals, were absent in DSC thermograms obtained for the freeze-dried inclusion complex. Moreover, the DSC studies under oxidation conditions indicate that the complex of vanillin with β-CD is protected towards oxidation since it remains intact at temperatures where the free vanillin is oxidising. The structure of the complex in aqueous solutions was established by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies and specifically by two-dimensional rotational frame NOE spectra. NMR studies showed inclusion of the entire vanillin molecule in the β-CD in a tilted manner and with the aldehyde group in the primary side. The stoichiometry of the complex was 1:1. A phase solubility study was performed by mixing an excess amount of vanillin with aqueous solutions containing increasing amounts of β-CD. The results indicated that the complex of a vanillin/β-CD inclusion is more soluble in water than vanillin alone. 相似文献

In this paper, a Delay Tolerant Network environment is considered where the source is in full control of the two-hop spreading mechanism by setting key parameters such as the number of copies allowed to be spread in the network and the delay bound of the messages. The introduced analysis allows for a differentiation between the source of the message and the intermediate nodes (in terms of e.g. transmission power, speed or cooperation degree). Analytical expressions for the cumulative distribution function (cdf) of the delivery delay and the induced overhead are extracted, taking into account the fact that the source node may continue spreading copies after the message delivery. In addition, a fairly accurate approximate expression for the cdf of the delivery delay is also derived and validated through simulations. 相似文献

Collapse of structure of foodstuffs during air drying affects quality. In many materials the soluble components, mainly sugars, are an important part of the tissue in which case collapse may be related to their glass transition temperature (Tg). It has been speculated that collapse occurs at a temperature (Tc) related to, but greater than, Tg. Plant tissues with high moisture contents, such as celery, have low TgS. Therefore considerable collapse is expected at drying temperatures.
The aim of this study was to determine how air drying temperature affected the quantity characteristics of the tissue. Celery, air dried at temperatures between 5 and 80°C, was examined for volumetric shrinkage, rehydration characteristics and porosity changes. significant shrinkage occurred at all drying conditions. At low water content collapse was limited, probably due to a higher collapse temperature. porosity development was insignificant during drying until the sample was very dry. Lower air-drying temperatures gave a product with improved quality characteristics. 相似文献

ABSTRACT The air drying kinetics of fresh and osmotically dehydrated fruits (apples) was determined. Two sugars, glucose and sucrose, were used as osmotic dehydration agents. Three levels of sugar concentration (15%, 30% and 45%) and several times of immersion into the sugar solution were used. Following the osmotic preconcentration, the fruit samples were dried at 55°C and the weight of material was recorded. The effective water diffusivity of samples treated under various osmotic conditions was estimated and the results were related to the sugar content and the bulk porosity of the samples. The effective water diffusivity, resulting from the application of the diffusion equation to the drying kinetics of the apples was found to decrease significantly for the samples pretreated by a concentrated sugar solution (e.g. 45%), evidently due to the lower porosity and other physicochemical factors. The low diffusivity may be beneficial in the storage stability and utilization of dehydrated fruits. 相似文献

Mass transfer phenomena were investigated during osmotic dehydration of apple, banana and kiwi in glucose and sucrose osmotic solution. A complete set of experiments was performed for a wide range of temperature, sample size, speed of agitation, osmotic agent concentration and immersion time. An empirical model, based on a first order kinetic equation, was fitted satisfactorily to experimental data. Furthermore, the effect of solute molecular weight on mass transfer phenomena during the osmotic treatment was evaluated. The results showed that low molecular weight solute (glucose) leads to higher water loss and solids uptake than high molecular weight solute (sucrose), of osmodehydrated fruits under the same solution concentration. 相似文献

An industrial batch-type, tray air dryer constructed for drying of several fruits, was investigated. Momentum, heat and mass transfer regarding both gaseous and solid phases was simulated using computational fluid dynamics. A mathematical model of the dryer for predicting the turbulent, three-dimensional transfer phenomena inside the industrial batch dryer equipment was developed and analyzed. The model consists of the full set of partial differential equations that describe the conservation of mass, momentum and heat inside the dryer. The standard k-ε model was used to describe turbulence in addition to the governing conservation equations. The simulated profiles of flow field, temperature and humidity of the air phase revealed a lack of spatial homogeneity of air conditions above the product. The situation was found to greatly influence the distribution of material moisture content of the dried product for the various stages of drying. The investigation was carried out for the representative case of sultana raisins. 相似文献
