Multivariable control systems design addresses the challenges of controlling processes with several interacting inputs and outputs. This field synthesises advanced control theories with practical ...

When model-based multivariable control made its debut in the 1980s, it was expected that process models, once acquired through a plant step test, would be durable and long lived. However, this ...

Editor's Note: InTech with Automation.com is planning a survey of readers' input about how they would like to see multivariable control move forward. Please email your feedback or proposed survey ...

Multi-variable model-based control is a technology known to provide superior performance over traditional single-input-single-output control strategies. Originally developed for petroleum refineries ...

Why this unit is important Many real-world plants have multiple, cross-coupled inputs and output, and exhibit nonlinear or time-varying behaviour. This unit introduces the theoretical tools required ...

ARC. ARC refers to a combination of a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller, signal selectors and split ranges, ...

It’s not, “You say ‘tomato’ and I say ‘tomahto.’ ” With advanced process controls (APCs), you either know what they are or you don’t. If you do know, you know they give for-real, money-in-your-pocket ...
