Multivariable control systems design and optimization addresses the task of regulating multiple interdependent process variables within a single framework. Unlike single‐loop controllers, ...

Abstract: This paper presents a novel sequential strategy which is based on finite element method (FEM) and optimization methodology. It is proposed to deal with the multivariable designing of the ...

Editor's Note: InTech with Automation.com is planning a survey of readers' input about how they would like to see multivariable control move forward. Please email your feedback or proposed survey ...

When model-based multivariable control made its debut in the 1980s, it was expected that process models, once acquired through a plant step test, would be durable and long lived. However, this ...

Abstract: In this article, multivariable derivative-free optimization algorithms for unconstrained optimization problems are developed. A novel procedure for approximating the gradient of ...
