The topic of process control can become very mathematical, and most books cover the topic from a mainly theoretical point of view. This book, which is based on the third volume of the encyclopedic Industrial Control Handbook, presents the mathematics in a readable manner, and is written as far as possible from a practical aspect.
Topics such as analytical methods and system modelling, stability, controllers, complex systems, and signal, noise and data transmission (including the ISO/OSI model, MAP and Fieldbus) are covered. A new chapter covers computer simulation and control. Programs written in Turbo Pascal are also covered. Andrew Parr is a practising engineer who has implemented a control system of high complexity in a challenging environment: on one of the most advanced steel plants in the world. Unlike other books on the subject, therefore, Industrial Control Engineering only covers the theory necessary to understand what is going on, making it the essential guardian of quality for industrial, process and control engineers actually working on real applications. Because of the clarity and rigour, the handbook will also act as a guide for students and those entering industry for the first time. Put down your fuzzy control theory text; lay aside your programming manual. If you want to know how to control a real process, read this book.
