Multivariable feedback control systems address the coordinated regulation of processes with multiple interacting inputs and outputs. By modelling the plant in state-space or frequency domains, ...

The design of a range of challenging industrial control processes, carried out with the method of inequalities, is reviewed in this chapter. All the designs are in accordance with the conventional ...

In this article, as in industry, advanced process control (APC) refers primarily to multi-variable control. Multivariable control means adjusting multiple single-loop controllers in unison, to meet ...

Distillation columns are extensively deployed in the chemical process industries when there is a need for separation of components that have different boiling points. Typically, a mixture of ...
