Abstract

A method of electronic conductivity measurement is presented. It combines two well known methods of electrochemistry: cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry. This DC technique uses the Hebb/Wagner approach to block ionic conduction when steady state conditions are reached and allows electronic conduction of solid electrolytes to be determined. In order to get short diffusion times, a micro contact is used as an ion blocking electrode. However, as the electronic conduction in electrolytes is and should be very low, the current is also very low, typically some tens of nanoamps. Thus, the heating system inevitably generates noise problems that are solved using a median filter. Our system allows the determination of the conductivities without any preliminary smoothing or fitting of the curves. Some results with oxygen ion conductors are also give

Safe learning-based control via function-based uncertainty quantification

Uncertainty quantification is essential when deploying learning-based control methods in safety-critical systems. This is commonly realized by constructing uncertainty tubes that enclose the unknown function of interest, e.g., the reward and constraint functions or the underlying dynamics model, with high probability. However, existing approaches for uncertainty quantification typically rely on restrictive assumptions that encode smoothness properties of the unknown function, such as a known norm in a function space. Moreover, these methods usually struggle with discontinuities. In this paper, we model the unknown function as a random function from which independent and identically distributed realizations can be generated. We then construct uncertainty tubes via the scenario approach that hold with high probability. Our uncertainty tubes rely solely on sampled realizations and can therefore accommodate discontinuities represented by the sampling model. We integrate these uncertainty tubes into a safe Bayesian optimization algorithm with which we safely tune control parameters on a real Furuta pendulum.

Receding Horizon Multi-Agent Deceptive Path Planner

Deceptive path planning enables autonomous agents to obscure their true goals from observers by deviating from an expected optimal path. Prior work largely solves full-horizon, end-to-end optimization for single agents, which is expensive to recompute online and difficult to scale or adapt en route. We propose a unified framework for deceptive path planning using a Boltzmann distribution, computing over short-horizon candidate trajectories within a receding-horizon loop. By param- By iterating a user-defined cost that captures deception, resources, and smoothness, and optionally includes coupling terms between agents, the framework yields stochastic policies that balance the tradeoff between optimal paths and deceptive deviation. Policies are updated locally and do not require training. The level of deception and adherence to constraints can be dynamically tuned, enabling online adaptation to changes in goals and constraints such as obstacles. This step-by-step tuning opens the door to new forms of dynamic deception. Simulation studies demonstrate the flexibility of our approach, maintaining deception while adapting to environmental and constraint updates, avoiding the recomputation required by full-horizon methods, and supporting intuitive tuning via a small set of parameters

Reshaping Converter-Network Interactions in Microgrids: From Virtual Impedance to Virtual Two-Port Control

Converter terminal characteristics are central to both dynamic interactions with the network and steady-state power sharing in inverter-based microgrids. Conventional additive virtual impedance (VI) shapes these characteristics through a single virtual branch. This paper proposes virtual two-port control, which uses four coordinated transfer channels to reconstruct the terminal impedance. The connected network consequently observes the original converter through a virtually inserted twoport interface, with conventional virtual impedance recovered as a degenerate case. The proposed control transforms the original impedance through a matrix linear-fractional map. We also derive a necessary and sufficient condition for the reconstruction to be stable and proper. Among its various potential applications in microgrids, we develop three representative ones in detail: passivation with reduced control effort, uncertainty compression, and seriesshunt power-flow regulation. Simulations of VSG-controlled converters demonstrate the advantages of the proposed method over conventional VI in these applications.
