Optimal control problems involve the difficult task of determining time-varying profiles through dynamic optimization. Such problems become even more complex in practical situatio...
It is common that external procedures are incorporated into an equation-oriented model when modeling complex chemical process systems. The so-obtained models are called composite ...
Multimodel analysis and controller design for nonlinear processes via gap metric is discussed. It is shown that the loop-shaping H approach can integrate the procedure of selectin...
