TI - Advanced practical process control SN - 3-540-40480-5 PY - 2004/// CY - Berlin PB - Springer KW - Control industrial KW - Tecnología electrónica N1 - Bibliografía. - índice N2 - An application-oriented approach to process control. The reference text systematically explains process identification, control and optimization, the three key steps needed to solve a multivariable control problem. Theory is discussed as far as it is needed to understand and solve the defined problem, while numerous examples written in MATLAB illustrate the problem-solving approach. A new software package for linear multivariable process identification and control is included with the book on CD-ROM. This package combines unique features of some multivariable control tools, while a detailed description of this software package is included in a separate appendix; INDICE: Introduction to Advanced Process Control Concepts.- Process Simulation.- Process Modeling and Identification.- Identification Examples.- Linear Multivariable Control.- Multivariable Optimal Constraint Control Algorithm.- Internal Model Control.- Nonlinear Multivariable Control.- Optimization of Process Operation.- Optimization Examples.- Integration of Control and Optimization.- Appendix I: MCPS Software Guide.- Appendix II: Comparison of Control Strategies for a Hollow Shaft Reactor ER -
