Control and Optimization of Multiscale Process Systems

by Panagiotis D. Christofides, Amit Varshney, Antonios Armaou, et al.

This book-the first of its kind-presents general methods for feedback controller synthesis and optimization of multiscale systems, illustrating their application to thin-film growth, sputtering processes, and catalytic systems of industrial interest. The authors demonstrate the advantages of the methods presented for control and optimization through extensive simulations.

Included in the work are new techniques for feedback controller design...
