Hybrid predictive control: mono-objective and multi-objective design -- Hybrid predictive control for a dial-a-Ride system -- Hybrid predictive control for operational decisions in public transport systems -- Conclusions
Summary
Hybrid Predictive Control for Dynamic Transport Problems develops methods for the design of predictive control strategies for nonlinear-dynamic hybrid discrete-/continuous-variable systems. The methodology is designed for real-time applications, particularly the study of dynamic transport systems. Operational and service policies are considered, as well as cost reduction. The control structure is based on a sound definition of the key variables and their evolution. A flexible objective function able to capture the predictive behaviour of the system variables is described. Coupled with efficien
