Improving Thermal Performance of Buildings using Smart Inspections and Peltier-driven Heat Recovery (2024)
Thesis
Shariq, M. H. Improving Thermal Performance of Buildings using Smart Inspections and Peltier-driven Heat Recovery. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4860398

Buildings account for 40% of overall carbon emissions in the UK which have significant impacts on the environment. The overconsumption of energy for heating and cooling is primarily caused by thermal leakages due to building defects. Existing techniq...

Energy Maximization of Control for a Point Absorber Wave Energy Converter (2024)
Thesis
Li, D. Energy Maximization of Control for a Point Absorber Wave Energy Converter. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4704554

To date, one of the main challenges and requirements in wave energy technologies is to design energy-maximising control for a wave energy converter (WEC) device to achieve the energy maximization production, so as to reduce the levelized cost of ener...

Distributed finite-time adaptive fault-tolerant consensus control of second-order multi-agent systems under deception attacks (2024)
Journal Article
Liu, C., Wang, W., Yu, Z., & Patton, R. J. (in press). Distributed finite-time adaptive fault-tolerant consensus control of second-order multi-agent systems under deception attacks. International journal of adaptive control and signal processing, https://doi.org/10.1002/acs.3750

This study addresses the issue of distributed fault-tolerant consensus control for second-order multi-agent systems subject to simultaneous actuator bias faults in the physical layer and deception attacks in the cyber layer. Cyber-physical threats (m... Read More about Distributed finite-time adaptive fault-tolerant consensus control of second-order multi-agent systems under deception attacks.

Interval Observer-Based Fault Detection and Isolation for Quadrotor UAV with Cable-Suspended Load (2024)
Journal Article
Zhu, X., Li, Y., Yin, G., & Patton, R. J. (2024). Interval Observer-Based Fault Detection and Isolation for Quadrotor UAV with Cable-Suspended Load. IEEE transactions on systems, man, and cybernetics. Systems, 54(10), 5876-5888. https://doi.org/10.1109/TSMC.2024.3411315

This article proposes an actuator fault detection and isolation (FDI) scheme for quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with a cable-suspended load. First, a linear parameter-varying (LPV) model of quadrotor UAV is established, in which the effects...
