Optimal Control for Decentralized Platooning:
The idea of autonomous vehicles and automated highway systems is no new concept to the automotive industry. The potential benefits of such a technology are numerous. The platooning approach would imply energy economy through air drag reduction, but also reduced track congestion and increased safety. The question of longitudinal control in a platoon configuration is central, the main concern being relative to safety.
In this thesis, different classical control approaches will be compared and applied to the platooning problem. Among these approaches, one was tested in November 2012 in a demonstration which involved three teams and multiple vehicles from different Swedish universities. Constrained optimal control comes with the prospect of increased safety and better handling of some characteristics of physical systems.
The main negative impact of this constraint handling lies in its computational complexity. Numerical problems were encountered and described with the use of MPC. Proportional-Integral and Linear Quadratic controllers were retained and applied to the tracking problem in the context of vehicle platooning. These methods will be compared in a simulation environment.

Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting Devices for Recharging Batteries:
Piezoelectric materials can be used as a means of transforming ambient vibrations into electrical energy that can be stored and used to power other devices. With the recent surge of micro scale devices, piezoelectric power generation can provide a convenient alternative to traditional power sources used to operate certain types of sensors/actuators, telemetry, and MEMS devices. However, the energy produced by these materials is in many cases far too small to directly power an electrical device.
Therefore, much of the research into power harvesting has focused on methods of accumulating the energy until a sufficient amount is present, allowing the intended electronics to be powered. In a recent study by Sodano et al. the ability to take the energy generated through the vibration of a piezoelectric material was shown to be capable of recharging a discharged nickel metal hydride battery.
In the present study, three types of piezoelectric devices will be investigated and experimentally tested to determine each of their abilities to transform ambient vibration into electrical energy and their capability to recharge a discharged battery. The three types of piezoelectric devices tested are; the commonly used monolithic piezoceramic material lead-zirconated-titanite (PZT), the bimorph Quick Pack (QP) actuator and Macro Fiber Composite (MFC).
The experimental results estimate the efficiency of the three devices tested and identify the feasibility of their use in real world applications. Various different capacity batteries are recharged using each device, to determine the charge time and maximum capacity battery that can be charged. The results presented in this paper show the potential of piezoelectric materials for use in power harvesting applications, provide a means of choosing the piezoelectric device to be used and estimating the amount of time required for it to recharge a specific capacity battery.

An Improved Droop Control Method for Multi-Terminal VSC-HVDC Converter Stations:
Multi-terminal high voltage direct current transmission based on voltage source converter (VSC-HVDC) grids can connect non-synchronous alternating current (AC) grids to a hybrid alternating current and direct current (AC/DC) power system, which is one of the key technologies in the construction of smart grids. However, it is still a problem to control the converter to achieve the function of each AC system sharing the reserve capacity of the entire network.
This paper proposes an improved control strategy based on the slope control of the DC voltage and AC frequency (V–f slope control), in which the virtual inertia is introduced. This method can ensure that each AC sub-system shares the primary frequency control function.
Additionally, with the new control method, it is easy to apply the secondary frequency control method of traditional AC systems to AC/DC hybrid systems to achieve the steady control of the DC voltage and AC frequency of the whole system. Most importantly, the new control method is better than the traditional control method in terms of dynamic performance.
In this paper, a new control method is proposed, and the simulation model has been established in MATLAB/Simulink to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control method.
