Abstract:Low performance control loops imply in higher production costs, leading to off-specification production loss and unnecessary wear of the final control elements. Depending on the controlled process, the deficient loop can also lead to non-expected plant stops and even on environment damage. In this sense, model predictive control (MPC) is one of the few algorithms proved capable to stabilize processes in the presence of nonlinearities and constraints. To meet its control objectives, the classic MPC algorithm is… Show more
