Similarly there has been a continued interest from academia in devising new ways of approaching the PID tuning problem. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e To the industrial engineer and many control academics this work has previously appeared fragmented; but a key determinant of this literature is the type of process model information used in the PID tuning methods. PID Control presents a set of coordinated contributions illustrating methods, old and new, that cover the range of process model assumptions systematically. After a review of PID technology, these contributions begin with model-free methods, progress through non-parametric model methods (relay experiment and phase-locked-loop procedures), visit fuzzy-logic- and genetic-algorithm-based methods; introduce a novel subspace identification method before closing with an interesting set of parametric model techniques including a chapter on predictive PID controllers. Highlights of PID Control include: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ean introduction to PID control technology features and typical industrial implementations; \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003echapter contributions ordered by the increasing quality of the model information used; \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003enovel PID control concepts for multivariable processes. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e PID Control will be useful to industry-based engineers wanting a better understanding of what is involved in the steps to a new generation of PID controller techniques. Academics wishing to have a broader perspective of PID control research and development will find useful pedagogical material and research ideas in this text. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50313024962833,"sku":"CIN0786263423G","price":13.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0786263423.jpg?v=1751201049","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/after-midnight-book-diana-palmer-9780786263424","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
