Adaptive layout for operating theatre in hospitals: different mathematical models for optimal layouts

Abdelahad Chraibi, Said Kharraja, Ibrahim H. Osman

The adaptive layout for operating theatre (ALOT) problem in hospitals seeks to determine the ‘most efficient’ layout placement of a set of health-care operating facilities, corridors and elevators in a designated area subject to a set of constraints on professional standards. Such standards include…

Fixed-Time Tracking Control of Chained-form Nonholonomic System with External Disturbances

Pipit Anggraeni, Michael Defoort, Mohamed Djemai, Zongyu Zuo

This paper studies the fixed-time tracking problem for chained-form nonholonomic systems under matched external disturbances. The proposed method is to construct a tracking controller such that the tracking errors converge to zero for any arbitrary initial tracking error at fixed-time. First of all…

Consensus of Double-Integrator Multi-Agent Systems Using Decentralized Model Predictive Control

Pipit Anggraeni, Michael Defoort, Mohamed Djemai, Aries Subiantoro, Abdul Muis

This paper studies the consensus for a group of agents which have a discrete-time double-integrator dynamics. To solve this problem, a Model Predictive Control (MPC) scheme is introduced. The proposed control protocol is decentralized and is designed by combining graph theory with a predictive…

Adaptive robust active suspension control based on intelligent road classifier

Yechen Qin, Mingming Dong, Changle Xiang, Tariq Kareemulla, Chouki Sentouh, Jean-Christophe Popieul

In this paper an intelligent robust feedback control approach is proposed for the nonlinear disturbed suspension system. The nonlinear controller is formulated based on the integral higher order sliding mode with control parameters optimized using Particle Swarm Optimization technique. A novel…

Wetting and evaporation of nanosuspension droplets, Mouillage et évaporation de gouttelettes de nanosuspensions

Maryam Maria Parsa

Evaporation of liquid droplets containing non-volatile solutes is an omnipresent phenomenon in daily life, e.g., coffee stains on solid surfaces. The study of pattern formation of the particles left after the evaporation of a sessile droplet has attracted the attention of many researchers during…, L’évaporation de gouttes de liquides contenant des particules non volatiles représente un phénomène largement présent dans la vie quotidienne, à l’image des traces laissées par le marc de café après séchage. L’étude de la morphologie des dépôts de particules présente un grand intérêt dans les…

Active Side Shafts Torsion Damping Control for Hybrid Electric Vehicles

Walter Lhomme, Florian Tournez, Sebastien Delprat, Sebastien Paganelli

Hybrid electric vehicles generally use an internal combustion engine and one or several electric drives. Optimization-based energy management strategies computes a power split between both the engine and the machine to minimize the fuel consumption. Nevertheless, the driving comfort is not taken…

Approche automatique à base de traitement d'images pour l'analyse comportementale de piétons âgés lors de la traversée d'une rue, Automatic image processing based approach for elder pedestrians’ behavior analysis when crossing a street

Nabila Mansouri

Le trafic routier est devenu de plus en plus intense. Une telle situation avec le manque de prudence des piétons constituent deux causes majeures de l’augmentation des accidents routiers. En France, 16% des accidents de la route en 2016 impliquent au moins un piéton et chaque année, environ de 800…, Road traffic has become more and more intense. Such as situation with thelack of attention of pedestrians are the two major causes of the increase in road accidents. In France, 16% of road accidents in 2016 involve at least one pedestrian and each year about 800 pedestrians are killed in a traffic…

Effect of Substrate Temperature on Pattern Formation of Bidispersed Particles from Volatile Drops

Maryam Maria Parsa, Souad Harmand, Khellil Sefiane, Maxence Bigerelle, Raphaël Deltombe

In this study, pattern formation during evaporation of bidispersed drops (containing 1 and 3.2 μm particles) placed on a smooth substrate at different temperatures is investigated. Five distinctive deposition patterns are observed depending on the substrate temperature: a relatively uniform pattern…
