About
Proven control methods for engineers working in industry, presented by four seasoned practitioners of control, with more than 100 years of industrial experience in the development and use of advanced control. Bridging the gap between theory and practice, this classic provides the basis for assessing the benefits of advanced control – covering auto-tuning, model predictive control, optimization, estimators, neural networks, fuzzy control, simulators, expert systems, diagnostics, and performance assessment.
This book includes a CD-ROM that helps bridge the theoretical concepts and practical implementations by providing real Delta V simulations and displays. This interactive CD-ROM offers practical design, simulation, and implementation examples that make key examples in the book come alive. Configuration and case files are supplied for a hands-on experience, and PowerPoint files suitable for lectures on each unit are also included. |
