Abstract:
The size and geographical distribution of large-scale energy and process systems can be prohibitive for centralized optimal control and estimation methods. In such cases, partition-based approaches, which exploit communication between subsystems, are a promising alternative. In this talk, an iterative, partition-based moving horizon estimator is presented, and its favorable properties are illustrated with numerical examples.
Bio:
René Schneider studied Engineering Cybernetics at the Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg in Germany from 2004 to 2009. From 2008 to 2009 he was a visiting student at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim, an intern at the Statoil Research Centre in Trondheim, as well as a visiting student at the Technical University Berlin. In 2009 he joined the Process Systems Engineering group of Prof. Wolfgang Marquardt at RWTH Aachen University, Germany, where he works as a research associate. His research interest is the application of optimization methods for control and state estimation, with a current focus on partition-based moving horizon estimators.
