American Control Conference

On May 25-28 I have attended and presented at the American Control Conference. In addition, I have chaired the session on Control of Mechanical Systems. I have presented a paper on closed-loop and MIMO aspects in fault diagnosis as well as a paper on tracking control of photopolymerization processes. The articles Read more…

Closed-loop Aspects in MIMO Fault Diagnosis with Application to Precision Mechatronics

K. Classens, W.P.M.H. Heemels, and T. Oomen, Proceedings of the IEEE American Control Conference, New Orleans, Louisiana, 2021. Abstract: Fault detection is essential in precision mechatronics to facilitate maintenance and minimize operational downtime. The aim of this paper is to develop a systematic procedure from identification to accurate nullspace-based fault Read more…

A Closed-Loop Perspective on Fault Detection for Precision Motion Control: With Application to an Overactuated System

K. Classens, W.P.M.H. Heemels, and T. Oomen, Proceedings of the IEEE International Conference on Mechatronics, Kashiwa, Japan, 2021. Abstract: Fault diagnosis is crucial in high-tech production equipment to minimize operational downtime and to facilitate targeted maintenance. Future high-tech systems have numerous complex closed-loop control systems and require compatible fault diagnosis Read more…

Multiphysical modeling and optimal control of material properties for photopolymerization processes

K. Classens, T. Hafkamp, S. Westbeek, J. J. C. Remmers, and S. Weiland, Additive Manufacturing, 2021 Abstract: Photopolymerization-based Additive Manufacturing (AM), a technique in which a product is built in a layerwise fashion by local curing of a liquid monomer, is increasingly being adopted by the high-tech sector. Nevertheless, industry Read more…
