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 ...

Author Dr. R. Russell Rhinehart discusses his new book, Nonlinear Model-Based Control: Using First-Principles Models in Process Control, and explains why nonlinear first-principles models should be ...

None of the continuous flow reactors, however, address the control challenges with operating this system. This presentation describes a low-cost, column-based continuous viral inactivation system ...

The control strategy uses an integral reinforcement learning algorithm to produce excellent steady-state and dynamic responses only by measurements. Compared to model-based control methods ...
