Title: Theoretical research and practice in intelligent control design for wind energy
Abstract: Wind energy has been considered to be a promising alternative to current fossil-based energies. Large-scale wind turbines have been widely deployed to substantiate the renewable energy strategy of various countries. In this talk, challenges faced by control community for high reliable and efficient exploitation of wind energy are discussed. Advanced controllers are designed to (partially) overcome problems, such as uncertainty, intermittence, and intense dynamics. Theoretical results and attempts for practice are both present.

Title: Control Research for Underactuated Cranes with State Constraints
Abstract: Crane systems are widely used transportation tools in industrial production. However, due to the underactuated properties, less control inputs are used to dominate more degrees of freedom for cranes, which increases the control difficulty. Furthermore, since the working environment for cranes may be complex, various state constraints should be considered for the control design of cranes to ensure safety. Considering these factors, in this presentation, we propose three different kinds of control methods with state constraints to deal with different crane transportation issues. We also extend the proposed method to solve the state constraint control problem for a class of underactuated systems. Rigorous theoretical analysis and comprehensive experimental tests illustrate the proper performance of proposed state constraint control method.

Title: Typical applications and studies of intelligent algorithm in the field of load side energy management
Abstract: The multi-energy complementary technology at the load side is an ideal regulation method for power grid to absorb clean energies and improve flexibility and reliability of energy supplement and it is also the one that gets the most attention issues in the field of energy internet. The region integrated flexible load is studied by this project from the load side. And, the strategy of comprehensive "aware", transparent "understanding" and precision "controlling" is put forward from the load side for distribution network side. The report includes:A wisdom data analysis system is established which contains denoising, dimension reduction, decomposition, recognition and extraction based on multiple heterogeneous data; The energy matching mechanism of different forms of flexible loads and distributed clean power generation is revealed. The solution would provide data support and theoretical reference for the research on improving the flexible energy matching ability of multi-energy system for distribution network.
