Dynamics and Control of Chemical Reactors, Distillation Columns and Batch Processes (DYCORD+ '92): Selected Papers from the 3rd IFAC Symposium, Maryland, USA, 26-29 April 1992 (IFAC Symposia Series) - Tapa dura

In addition to the three mains themes - chemical reactors, distillation columns and batch processors - this volume also addresses some of the new trends in dynamics and control methodology. These include model-based predictive control, recent methods for identification of dynamic models, nonlinear control theory and the application of neural networks to identification and control. It aims to provide a useful reference source of the major advances in the field.
