Title: Process control and identification
First published: 1994
Description: With today's competition in the high-tech industries, and the continuing need for material and energy conservation, hazard free operation, and environmentally safe discharges, it has become increasingly important to develop and apply methodologies and techniques that lead to improved performance and operation. Process Control and Identification presents the time domain approach to modern process control, which allows for the formulation of precise performance objectives that can be extremized.

Practical examples are given throughout to illustrate theoretical concepts. MATLAB, the software package that enables the solution of many optimal control problems, is used for the solution of many text examples. Computational issues as well as interpretation of results are stressed. Over 60 exercises are provided at the end of each chapter to facilitate self-study and use as a text.

With its comprehensive coverage and many examples, Process Control and Identification will be a valuable resource for practicing process control engineers and students.
