This book thoroughly covers the fundamentals of the QFT robust control, as well as practical
control solutions, for unstable, time-delay, non-minimum phase or distributed parameter …

Thereare richtheories and designs for generalcontrolsystems, but usually, they will not lead
to PID controllers. Noting that the PID controller has been the most popular one in industry …

The question of the existence of decentralized controllers for open-loop stable multivariable
systems which provide particular closed-loop properties is investigated. In particular, we …

Utilizing both steady state gain and bandwidth information of the process open loop transfer
function elements, this paper presents a new dynamic loop pairing criterion for decentralized …

This paper presents a new control-loop configuration criterion for multivariable processes.
Both the steady-state and transient information of the process transfer function are …

In this paper, a decentralized PI/PID controller design method based on gain and phase
margin specifications for two-input–two-output (TITO) interactive processes is proposed. The …

This paper deals with one of the possible ways to control multivariable (MIMO) control loops.
The suggested control design procedure uses the so-called primary controllers, auxiliary …

Distributed state estimation plays a very important role in process control. Improper
subsystem decomposition for distributed state estimation may increase the computational …

A new steady-state interaction measure, the relative interaction array (RIA), is explored in
terms of its features, properties, and relationship to the relative gain array (RGA). It is …

Block relative gain (BRG) is a useful method for finding suitable pairings for block
decentralized control. In this paper, we present some new algebraic properties of BRG and …
