I/UCRC Competitive Renewal: Operating Center Proposal for an Industry/University Cooperative Research Center: I/UCRC for Measurement and Control Engineering

本提案是对最初在田纳西大学建立的关于测量和控制工程的I/UCRC的更新。 本提案概述了田纳西大学和俄克拉荷马州州立大学之间的多大学合作。 现有的中心将通过与OSU合作进行扩展，OSU将增加先进的过程控制，重点是建模和实验计算机密集型研究。 该项目包括一名来自东卡罗莱纳大学的研究人员。目前的研究项目强调两个领域：分析仪器和过程控制优化与建模。 UTK教师参与这两个研究领域，而OSU教师只参与过程控制优化和建模领域。 该提案没有明确描述以前资助的中心的研究重点的变化，这将通过增加俄勒冈州立大学计划来完成。 工业界的参与和成员资格都很高，被认为是实力。

ABSTRACTEEC-9978598HIGHThis proposal is for renewal of an I/UCRC on measurement and control engineering which was originally established at the University of Tennessee. The present proposal outlines multi-university collaboration between the University of Tennessee and Oklahoma State University. The existing center will be expanded by partnering with OSU which adds advanced process control with a focus on modeling and experimental computer intensive studies. The program includes one investigator from Eastern Carolina University.The current research program emphasizes two areas: analytical Instrumentation and process control optimization and modeling. UTK faculty are involved in both research areas, whereas, OSU faculty are involved only in the process control optimization and modeling area. The proposal does not clearly delineate changes in the research focus of the previously funded center that is to be accomplished by adding the OSU program. Industrial involvement and membership are of high level and considered strength.
