Designing controllers for industrial systems, such as compressor stations or energy distribution networks, is usually challenging because of the complexity of the processes that are involved. A lot of existing controllers require solving difficult constrained optimization problems to find the optimal operating point. Online Feedback Optimization is a method for steering a nonlinear system to the solution of an optimization problem without explicitly solving nonlinear constrained optimization problems. It can be used to optimally share the load between gas compressors, optimally curtail renewable energy if necessary, or generally to operate a physical system at the optimal solution of an optimization problem. The idea behind this project is to analyze how Online Feedback Optimization should be implemented to facilitate its use in industry and expand the range of possible applications.
Online Feedback Optimization as a novel control method has recently gained traction in several research communities, is investigated by companies, and deployed in the European power grid. Even though it is now used in both industry and academia, the tuning of its parameters still requires in-depth knowledge of the method and characteristics of the physical system. By analysing the impact of tuning on the performance of the controlled system, the semester project will bridge the gap between the theory of feedback optimization and its implementation.

| Design effort and the associated costs are key factors which are limiting the adoption of additive manufacturing in industrial applications. One approach to tackle this problem is the use of automated design tools, which reduce the manual design effort to achieve manufacturable designs. In current research at pdz, we have been working on developing an automated design workflow for hydraulic manifolds. Several steps in the process chain have been tackled so far. - Mechanical Engineering
