Energy efficiency control of direct expansion air conditioning systems

“…In addition, in this chapter, the volumes of outside air allowed to enter the DX A/C system are regarded as varying with the changing circumstance over a day and are optimized by the AHC. Moreover, a supply fan to steer the pressure swing absorption with a built-in proportional-integral (PI) controller is proposed to lower the indoor CO2 concentration such that it would reduce the complexity of computation for the AHC and the cost of hardware. …”

A prototype dynamic model for the co-treatment of a high strength simple-organic industrial effluent and coal-mine drainage by Harding, Theodor

“…Two bench-scale 5-litre CSTR-BSR and a 20-litre BSR-GL system were operated, under varying feed COD concentrations and hydraulic retention times (HRTs), to generate datasets for use in verification and a rudimentary validation of the prototype model. The BSR-GL integrated system includes 1) a 1-litre H2S gas reactive absorption (ABS) unit utilising an aqueous ferric solution for the recovery of elemental sulfur (S0 ) from sulfide and 2) ferrous biological oxidation reactor to regenerate ferric from the ferrous for re-supply to the ABS unit. …”

Ethical Constraint-Based MPC with Adaptive Weight Scheduling for Autonomous Vehicles in Diverse Scenarios by Aafia`, Hend Mohammed

“…The proposed E-MPC is implemented using a nonlinear receding-horizon MPC formulation and integrated with ROS 2. The framework is evaluated in the CARLA simulation environment across a comprehensive set of scenarios, including nominal driving on curved roads, ethically motivated lane-change maneuvers, and unavoidable accident situations with constrained perception and limited stopping distance. …”
