Industry - University Cooperative Research: Robust Controller Design for Systems with Constraints

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This work will apply robust controllers developed to handle aerospace problems to the chemical process industries. Robust controllers perform a required task even though the mathematical model of the system to be controlled might be a poor one. The reachers will try to adapt and improve synthesis, and combine it with internal model control (IMC) now being successfully used for chemical plant control. The specific issues to be addressed include: (1) mathematical formulation of practical control problems suitable for synthesis; (2) qualitative understanding of the factors determining the optimal solution; (3) alternate controller parametrization; and (4) contrained control.
