description <p>The work in this thesis focuses on the development of a Stochastic Model Predictive Control (SMPC) algorithm for linear systems with additive and multiplicative stochastic uncertainty subjected to linear input/state constraints. Constraints can be in the form of hard constraints, which must be satisfied at all times, or soft constraints, which can be violated up to a pre-defined limit on the frequency of violation or the expected number of violations in a given period.</p> <p>When constraints are included in the SMPC algorithm, the difficulty arising from stochastic model parameters manifests itself in the online optimization in two ways. Namely, the difficulty lies in predicting the probability distribution of future states and imposing constraints on closed loop responses through constraints on predictions. This problem is overcome through the introduction of layered tubes around a centre trajectory. These tubes are optimized online in order to produce a systematic and less conservative approach of handling constraints. The layered tubes centered around a nominal trajectory achieve soft constraint satisfaction through the imposition of constraints on the probabilities of one-step-ahead transition of the predicted state between the layered tubes and constraints on the probability of one-step-ahead constraint violations. An application in the field of Sustainable Development policy is used as an example.</p> <p>With some adaptation, the algorithm is extended the case where the uncertainty is not identically and independently distributed. Also, by including linearization errors, it is extended to non-linear systems with additive uncertainty.</p>
