Distributed Control of Partial Differential Equations Using Convolutional Reinforcement Learning

S. Peitz, J. Stenner, V. Chidananda, O. Wallscheid, S.L. Brunton, K. Taira, in: arXiv:2301.10737, 2023

We present a convolutional framework which significantly reduces the complexity and thus, the computational effort for distributed reinforcement learning control of dynamical systems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs). Exploiting translational invariances, the high-dimensional distributed control problem can be transformed into a multi-agent control problem with many identical, uncoupled agents. Furthermore, using the fact that information is transported with finite velocity in many cases, the dimension of the agents' environment can be drastically reduced using a convolution operation over the state space of the PDE. In this setting, the complexity can be flexibly adjusted via the kernel width or by using a stride greater than one. Moreover, scaling from smaller to larger systems -- or the transfer between different domains -- becomes a straightforward task requiring little effort. We demonstrate the performance of the proposed framework using several PDE examples with increasing complexity, where stabilization is achieved by training a low-dimensional deep deterministic policy gradient agent using minimal computing resources.

Ein Beitrag zur thermischen Ausnutzung permanenterregter Synchronmotoren in automobilen Traktionsanwendungen

O. Wallscheid, Shaker Verlag, 2017

Abstract

Essentielle Anforderungen an Antriebssysteme für (teil-)elektrisch angetriebene Fahrzeuge sind eine hohe Leistungs- und Drehmomentdichte. Hierbei determinieren insbesondere die zulässigen Temperaturen wichtiger Motorkomponenten das transient sowie dauerhaft erzielbare Leistungspotential. Für die in automobilen Anwendungen häufig eingesetzten permanenterregten Synchronmotoren ist die Temperaturverteilung innerhalb der Wicklung und der Permanentmagnete von besonderem Interesse. Um den thermischen Bauteilschutz zu gewährleisten, werden Motoren in der industriellen Praxis häufig überdimensioniert, was zusätzlichen Gewichts- und Bauraumbedarf sowie höhere Produktionskosten bedingt. Alternativ kann ein Derating eingesetzt werden, welches die zulässige Motorleistung in Abhängigkeit des thermischen Zustands regelt. Dies erlaubt, sowohl die thermischen Kapazitäten des Motors gezielt auszunutzen als auch die Leistungsaufnahme im thermisch stationären Betrieb zu maximieren. Substantielle Voraussetzung hierfür ist die Kenntnis wichtiger Temperaturen zur Laufzeit - eine vollständige messtechnische Erfassung dieser ist allerdings aus Kosten- und Ausfallsicherheitsgründen nicht möglich. Im Zuge dieser Arbeit wurden daher sowohl thermische Netzwerke mit konzentrierten Parametern als auch Beobachteransätze auf Basis des elektrischen Motormodells untersucht. Darauf aufbauend wurde eine virtuelle Sensorfusion mittels Kalman-Filter realisiert. Umfangreiche Kreuz-Validierungen belegen eine hochgenaue, echtzeitfähige Temperaturermittlung mit einer Schätzabweichung von kleiner 5 K. Abschließend wurde ein modellprädiktives Derating-Konzept erarbeitet, welches sowohl die maximale thermische Ausnutzung des Antriebs erlaubt als auch definierte Grenztemperaturen sicher einhält.
