Decentralized motion planning and scheduling of AGVs in FMS

Guillaume Demesure, Michael Defoort, Abdelghani Bekrar, Damien Trentesaux, Mohamed Djemai

In this paper, decentralized motion planning and scheduling of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) in a flexible manufacturing system (FMS) is proposed. A motion planner is combined with a scheduler allowing each AGV to update its destination resource during navigation in order to complete the…

Gain-scheduled static output feedback control for saturated LPV systems with bounded parameter variations

Tran Anh-Tu Nguyen, Philippe Chevrel, Fabien Claveau

This paper presents a new design method for gain-scheduled static output feedback (SOF) controllers of saturated LPV (linear parameter varying) systems. Our solution is based on a special SOF scheme in conjunction with specific congruence transformations. The regional design is established through…

An effective and distributed particle swarm optimization algorithm for flexible job-shop scheduling problem

Maroua Nouiri, Abdelghani Bekrar, Abderrazak Jemai, Smail Niar, Ahmed Chiheb Ammari

Flexible job-shop scheduling problem (FJSP) is very important in many research fields such as production management and combinatorial optimization. The FJSP problems cover two difficulties namely machine assignment problem and operation sequencing problem. In this paper, we apply particle swarm…

Video-processing-based system for automated pedestrian data collection and analysis when crossing the street

Nabila Mansouri, Eric Watelain, Yousra Ben Jemaa, Cina Motamed

Computer-vision techniques for pedestrian detection and tracking have progressed considerably and become widely used in several applications. However, a quick glance at the literature shows a minimal use of these techniques in pedestrian behavior and safety analysis, which might be due to the…

Gait‐based human age classification using a silhouette model

Nabila Mansouri, Mohammed Aouled Issa, Yousra Ben Jemaa

Age estimation at a distance has potential applications including visual surveillance and monitoring in public places. Far from the camera, image resolution is significantly degraded. In fact, age estimation using classical methods such as face is not reliable. Given that gait is very sensitive to…

Designing a camera placement assistance system for human motion capture based on a guided genetic algorithm

Azeddine Aissaoui, Abdelkrim Ouafi, Philippe Pudlo, Christophe Gillet, Zine-Eddine Baarir, Abdelmalik Taleb-Ahmed

In multi-camera motion capture systems, determining the optimal camera configuration (camera positions and orientations) is still an unresolved problem. At present, configurations are primarily guided by a human operator’s intuition, which requires expertise and experience, especially with complex…

Mathematical programming models for scheduling in a CPU/FPGA architecture with heterogeneous communication delays

Abdessamad Ait El Cadi, Omar Souissi, Rabie Ben Atitallah, Nicolas Belanger, Abdelhakim Artiba

This paper deals with the mathematical modelling of a scheduling problem in a heterogeneous CPU/FPGA architecture with heterogeneous communication delays in order to minimize the makespan, Cmax. This study was motivated by the quality of the available solvers for Mixed Integer Program. The proposed…

On Convective Heat Transfer and Flow Dynamics Through a Straight T-Bifurcating Channel

Abdelhak Lakehal, Nora Nait Bouda, Julien Pellé, Souad Harmand

Both experimental and numerical studies of a turbulent flow in a bifurcating channel are performed to characterize the dynamical behavior of the flow and its impact on the convective heat transfer on the sides of the branch. This configuration corresponds to the radial vents placed in the stator…

Effects of synchronous versus asynchronous push modes on performance and biomechanical parameters in elite wheelchair basketball

Marjolaine Astier, Thierry Weissland, Jean-Marc Vallier, Didier Pradon, Eric Watelain, Arnaud Faupin

This study aimed to compare the effects of synchronous (SYN) vs asynchronous (ASY) modes of wheelchair propulsion in field sprint tests on performance and biomechanical parameters. Seven elite wheelchair basketball players performed two separate (SYN and ASY) straight-line 20-m sprints. ASY…
