Description
Ane Books Pvt Ltd Control Of Nonlinear Systems With Input Multiplicities by G Prabhaker Reddy
The occurrence of nonlinear systems, particularly chemical and biochemical reactors, exhibiting input multiplicities are reviewed. The associated control problems due to changes in magnitude and its direction of a disturbance variable (increasing and decreasing) are brought out. The methods in designing non-linear controllers for such systems to overcome the problems are proposed and evaluated by simulation. Experimental applications to bioreactors are given. The reviewed methods and the proposed methods in the book can also be easily implemented in the process industries. It offers a professional and modern view on automating the controller tuning efficiently. It is a first comprehensive text on control of systems with input multiplicities. This is a text book suited for an elective course for M.Tech students in Chemical Engineering specializing in Process control, Control Engineering, Instrumentation Engineering and Electrical Engineering. This book will be useful for researcher in Control Engineering. Contents : 1. Occurrence of Input Multiplicity and its Control Problems 2. Basic Review of Systems and Control 3.
