This paper describes an optimization procedure for the synthesis of complex distillation configurations. A superstructure based on the Reversible Distillation Sequence Model (RDSM...
: This paper presents a meta-heuristic optimization algorithm, Tabu Search (TS), and describes how it can be used to solve a wide variety of chemical engineering problems. Modifica...
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...
