Advanced Control Methods Applicable to Industrial Processing System

Advanced control method especially intelligent control methods have been widely applied in industrial processing. This book gives an introduction for industrial processing control system design and temperature system has been chosen to be the main controlled objects. Two advanced control methods are proposed in this book to deal with the shortcomings of the conventional control methods that can be concluded as nonlinearity, large dead time, and strong coupling influence, respectively. For the coupling influence and dead time difference in the multi-point temperature control system, a pole-zero cancellation method is proposed. While for the nonlinearity and large dead time of the control objects, a reference-model-based artificial neural network (NN) method is proposed. By this book, the readers will learn how to design and analyze complex industrial processing systems.
