The paper explores the standard advanced control elements commonly used in industry for
designing advanced control systems. These elements include cascade, ratio, feedforward …

Feedback optimizing control aims to achieve asymptotic optimal operation by directly
manipulating the inputs using feedback controllers, without the need to solve numerical …

In this brief, an adaptive fuzzy tracking control method is proposed for switched multi-input
multi-output (MIMO) nonlinear systems with time-varying full state constrains (TFSCs) and …

Conventional real‐time optimization (RTO) requires detailed process models, which may be
challenging or expensive to obtain. Model‐free RTO methods are an attractive alternative to …

We study the optimal steady-state operation of processes where the active constraints
change. The aim of this work is to eliminate or reduce the need for a real-time optimization …

Averaging level control is used in liquid processing plants to optimally use the available
volume in surge drums and storage tanks to stabilize the feed to downstream equipment …

Selector logic is a simple and effective tool to switch between different controlled variables
associated with change in active constraints. Selector blocks have been extensively used in …

Primal–dual feedback-optimizing control is a simple yet powerful approach to optimally
handle active constraint changes at steady state. It is composed of two layers: Constraint …

Gas turbines are the main means for generating power in offshore installations. To increase
energy efficiency, and thus reduce CO 2 emissions, a steam bottoming cycle can be added …

The scope of this work is to advocate the use of a decentralized control system that is able to
maximize production when temporary or permanent bottlenecks occur for multiple units in …
