    Abstract: A controller for controlling a system having uncertainties in its dynamics subject to constraints on an operation of the system is provided. The controller is configured to acquire historical data of the operation of the system, and determine, for the system in a current state, a current control action transitioning a state of the system from the current state to a next state. The current control action is determined according to a robust and constraint Markov decision process (RCMDP) that uses the historical data to optimize a performance cost of the operation of the system subject to an optimization of a safety cost enforcing the constraints on the operation, wherein a state transition for each of state and action pairs in the performance cost and the safety cost is represented by a plurality of state transitions capturing the uncertainties of the dynamics of the system.

    Abstract: A distributed energy resource (DER) exchanges with each neighboring DER portions of the total demand for power accumulated by the DER and each neighboring DER and portions of a total capability of the network to generate the total power accumulated by the DER and each neighboring DER before each communication step. The DER updates the portion of the total demand for power and total capability accumulated by the DER using the portions of the total demand and the portions of the total capability received from the neighboring DERs. After the fixed number of communication steps, the DER accumulates the total demand for power and the total capability of the network and generates an amount of the power as a product of the total demand for the power and a ratio of a maximum capability of the DER to generate the power and the total capability of the network.

    Abstract: A method reduces a sway of an elevator rope supporting an elevator car within an elevator system using an elevator sheave. The method controls, using a movement of the elevator sheave, a tension of the elevator rope according to a control law of the tension of the elevator rope between a first point and a second point. The first point is associated with a contact of the elevator rope with the elevator sheave. The second point is associated with a contact of the elevator rope with the elevator car or a counterweight of the elevator car. The control law is a function of one or combination of a relative position, a relative velocity and a relative acceleration between the first and the second points.
