This article considers the parameter identification problem of multiple‐input single‐output
Hammerstein nonlinear systems. Applying the data filtering technique, the input–output data …

This study presents the control of the nonlinear model of a continuous stirred tank reactor
(CSTR) through different control structures. The structures considered are single feedback …

The abnormal control valve dead zone in the steam turbine causes system oscillation
severely, affecting the stable power generation of the power plant. In this study, a graph …

One of the difficulties in practical implementations of the classic Real-Time Optimization
(RTO) strategy is the integration between optimization and control layers, mainly due to the …

Valve stiction is the most common root of oscillation faults in process control systems, and it
can cause the severe deterioration of control performance and system instability, ultimately …

In previous works from the literature, the prediction precision of friction models applied for
pneumatic valve modeling is compared using simulations. This paper extends these works …

The status of control valves directly influences the routine operation of industrial process.
Stiction nonlinearity is one of the widely known failure modes of a valve, which may hazard …

In industrial processes, stiction in control valves is a common cause of degradation in control
loop performance. It is important to identify and establish reliable stiction models to enhance …

Nonlinear flow characteristics of main steam regulating valves play an important role on the
performance of primary frequency control in thermal power generation units. Manual testing …

In this paper, a nonlinear predictive generalized minimum variance (NPGMV) controller is
proposed and explicitly formulated for a class of nonlinear systems modeled by …
