A sufficient condition for robust asymptotic stability of nonlinear constrained model predictive control (MPC) is derived with respect to plant/model mismatch. This work is an extension of a previous study on the unconstrained nonlinear MPC problem, and is based on nonlinear programming sensitivity concepts. It addresses the discrete time state feedback problem with all states measured. A strategy to estimate b...
A nonlinear model predictive control algorithm is implemented on-line to control the liquid level and temperature in a pilot plant CSTR, where an irreversible exothermic chemical reaction is simulated experimentally by steam injection. The dynamic behavior of the pilot plant reactor is represented using a mechanistic, first principle model and a comparison between off-line simulation and experimental data is pr...
A strategy based on Nonlinear Programming (NLP) sensitivity is developed to establish stability bounds on the plant/model mismatch for a class of optimization-based Model Predictive Control (MPC) algorithms. By extending well-known nominal stability properties for these controllers, we derive a sufficient condition for robust stability of these controllers. This condition can also be used to assess the extent o...
