Over the past 10 years, a significant effort to retrofit schools in the Province of British Columbia has been undertaken. A central part of this work has been on the deve [...]

An earthquake early warning system has been developed and implemented in the Province of British Columbia in Western Canada. The system was developed in collaboration bet [...]

While arches are a well established structural system, with well understood performance under gravity loads, there are known issues under seismic loading. A study was und [...]

Relatively unknown reinforcement learning algorithm, so called continuous action reinforcement learning automaton, is presented in this contribution. Automaton learning a [...]

The active magnetic bearing control through self learning controller is described in this contribution. Controller’s coefficient (parameter) values come from actions of [...]

The previous research of control methods to control fast nonlinear systems was verified by simulation of control of an active magnetic bearing (AMB). A hardware implement [...]

Modifications of reinforcement learning algorithm, so called continuous action reinforcement learning automaton (CARLA), are presented in this contribution. Automaton lea [...]

Algorithm of locally weighted regression is presented in this contribution. Local approximator repeatedly uses the locally linear model based on least square method. Simu [...]

Control design of rotating shaft levitated by active magnetic bearing is described in this contribution. Genetic algorithm is used to design controller parameters. Depend [...]
