During the past decade model predictive control (MPC), also referred to as receding horizon
control or moving horizon control, has become the preferred control strategy for quite a …

This paper considers linear control design for systems with input magnitude saturation. A
general anti-windup scheme which optimizes nonlinear performance, applicable to MIMO …

We derive stability conditions for model predictive control (MPC) with hard constraints on
the inputs and "soft" constraints on the outputs for an infinitely long output horizon. We show …

Published by AAAS geneity among the three undergraduate institutions in our sample in
terms of proportion of higher-level questions (P= 0.03)(11). Thus, even our small sample …

In this paper, a novel model predictive control (MPC) algorithm for control of nonlinear
multivariable systems is proposed. The online computational demand of the algorithm depends …

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries account for a large percentage of knee injuries,
disproportionately affecting female athletes. To help health professionals stay current, we …

A hierarchical procedure for synthesizing an optimal plantwide control system is proposed
for an existing continuous chemical process. Alternative plantwide control systems are …

Background School-based injuries represent a sizeable portion of child injuries. This study
investigated the rates of school-based injuries in Lebanon, examining injury mechanisms, …

Background Abusive head trauma (AHT) is a severe form of child abuse causing devastating
outcomes for children and families, but its economic costs in Canada has yet to be …

Background Lebanon, an Eastern Mediterranean country, suffers a large burden of injury as
a consequence of conflict and war, political instability, and the lack of policies and safety …
