The technological world of today has been witnessing the increased complexity due to the rapid development of the process plants and the manufacturing processes. The computational complexity, the reliability problems and the restrictions in the communication make the ordinary control strategy for such large-scale complex systems expensive, difficult and insufficient.
The complexity arises in many fields in the form of the highly nonlinearities, the large order of the describing dynamical systems, the large number of subsystems which are interacting and even the large number of input and outputs of the system. To cope with the complexity several techniques have been proposed over the last few decades and recently received a lot of attention again due to the ever increasing complexity of physical and man-made systems. These techniques find application in the variety of fields ranging from the electrical power systems, the hydraulic systems to the heat transfer, and the chemical processes. The focus of the course is on the methods which automatically simplify the modeling and control of the complex systems. In particular , the main focus of the course is on the methods for:
• Order reduction of large-scale systems
• System Approximation and controller structure selection for complex systems
• Modeling and control of the cyber-physical systems
The application of the methods will be studied in the area of the energy systems.
