In this paper, we address the design and analysis of multi-variable extremum seeking for
static maps subject to arbitrarily long time delays. Both Gradient and Newton-based methods …

The year in which this book appears is the centennial of the 1922 invention, in the context of
maximizing the power transfer to an electric tram car [130], of the method for real-time …

One of the most important factors affecting fuel efficiency and emissions of automotive
engines is combustion quality that is usually controlled by managing spark advance (SA) in …

In hybrid electric vehicles, the energy economy depends on the coordination between the
internal combustion engine and the electric machines under the constraint that the total …

This article presents an on-board map learning–based spark advance control framework for
combustion engines. The proposed control framework addresses the knock probabilistic …

We provide new designs for multivariable extremum seeking for static maps with arbitrarily
long time delays. We allow different delays in each input channel and output delays, and …

Increasingly strict legislation for greenhouse gas and real-world pollutant emissions makes it
necessary to develop fuel-efficient and robust control solutions for future automotive …

Given its success in other renewable energy domains, such a solar and wind, extremum-
seeking control (ESC) would seem to be a promising candidate for the wave energy energy …

This paper investigates the combustion phasing control of natural gas-diesel engines. In this
study, the combustion phasing is influenced by manipulating the start and the duration of the …

In the current investigation, raw biogas obtained from rural sectors was used as the
alternative to gasoline fuel in the spark ignition (SI) engine. The performance and efficiency …
