Estimation of Nonstationary Process Variance in Multistage Manufacturing Processes Using a Model-Based Observer

Process Capability Optimization in Multistage Manufacturing Processes Based on the Cost-Utility Ratio

To solve the problem that process capability optimization in multistage manufacturing processes has not been studied so much. Firstly, a multistage manufacturing process quality variation model is built to analyze the impaction of each stage quality on process capability. Then, a multistage manufacturing process capability analysis method with “Costutility ratio” is proposed to prioritize proce...

Variability monitoring of multistage manufacturing processes using regression adjustment methods

A Novel Algorithm for Rotor Speed Estimation of DFIGs Using Machine Active Power based MRAS Observer

This paper presents a new algorithm based on Model Reference Adaptive System (MRAS) and its stability analysis for sensorless control of Doubly-Fed Induction Generators (DFIGs). The reference and adjustable models of the suggested observer are based on the active power of the machine. A hysteresis block is used in the structure of the adaptation mechanism, and the stability analysis is performe...

State estimation in batch processes using a nonlinear observer

This paper deals with the problem of nonlinear states estimation in batch chemical processes. It presents a reduced-order nonlinear observer approach to perform the estimation. The proposed method allows adjustment of the speed of convergence towards zero of the estimation error. The stability properties of the model-based observer are analytically treated in order to show the conditions under ...
