Cascade, ratio and feedforward control. Proportional-integral-derivative (PID) enhancements: inferential control, override control/selective control, scheduling controller tuning and implementation issues. Other advanced control techniques - deadtime compensation (the Smith Projector) and adaptive control. Multi-input multi-output (MIMO) Control Systems: process and control loop interactions, control loop, pairings - the residual gas analysis (RGA) method, decoupling control systems, and multivariable control techniques. Digital control systems: introduction, Z-transforms, development of discrete time models, dynamic response of discrete time systems, discrete time control algorithms,... -- Course Website
