Any talk of model-based predictive control (MPC) still conjures up images of dollar or euro signs in the minds of many engineers. For in the past, MPC and other forms of advanced process control (APC) ...

Model Predictive Control (MPC) has emerged as a leading strategy in advanced process control, offering the ability to anticipate future process behaviour and manage constraints in dynamic systems.

At California Institute of Technology, he helped build interdisciplinary research environments Morari helped turn MPC from ...

A new technique able to forecast how changes to parameters will impact biomanufacturing processes could revolutionize drug production, save manufacturers time and money, and help increase access to ...

Distillation columns are extensively deployed in the chemical process industries when there is a need for separation of components that have different boiling points. Typically, a mixture of ...

Today’s ac servo systems are much different than those built even 10 years ago. Faster processors and higher resolution encoders are enabling manufacturers to implement amazing advances in tuning ...

he Rockwell Automation Pavilion8 Model Predictive Control application helps manufacturers achieve precision in a dynamic market, reducing product variability, while increasing yield and lowering ...

a, Results based on the previous algorithm using an exponential auxiliary function. The concave shape of the exponential function fails to match the initial convex trend of the actual robust function ...

ARTIFICIAL intelligence is advancing rapidly. But adoption in process industries will be slower – and for good reason.
