monitoring is an essential and inseparable tool for every industrial automation system.  in advanced monitoring, in addition to representation of the process conditions, fast identification and removing of the faults in different critical parts of the system is indispensable. distributed control systems (dcs) are an integral part of the current automation systems and hence, advanced monitoring ...

Water storage tanks not designed explicitly for seismic loading could require retrofit. One of the common ways of retrofit include some structural change in the lateral load resisting system that could be expensive and requires the tank to be out of service for relatively long time. This paper introduces a novel method to reduce seismic demand on tank’s wall without structural intervention. Thi...

the impact of installing process control systems can be expected in terms of performance improvements through reduced operating costs.  since these installations impose considerable capital expenditure, the profitability of the new systems should be economically justified. controlled variable trend was reconstructed by a combination of simple waves, which provided a means to simulate the effect...

The stability of the arterial pressure control system after a mild hemorrhage (5 ml/kg body wt) was studied in 10 anesthetized cats by analyzing the responses of arterial pressure and of heart rate and the dead time (L) of heart rate response to a minute, rapid test hemorrhage (1 ml/kg body wt). The overall open-loop gain (H) of the arterial pressure control system was estimated from the ratio ...

background: ketamine is the only anesthetic agent that leads to an increase of blood pressure and heart rate by activation of sympathetic nervous system. however, there is a controversy about this effect of ketamine especially if used in small dosage. we proposed to evaluate the hemodynamic effect of small dose of ketamine during phacoemulsification. methods: one hundred patients of asa physica...

This paper presents an ESO-based iPI control for common rail pressure. First, a detailed mathematical model of High Pressure Common Rail Injection System (HPCRIS) is built. The mathematical model is validated by the software Matlab and commercial software AMESim. For the considered HPCRIS, an effective model free controller which is called Extended State Observer based intelligent Proportional ...

This paper designs an integrated estimator and L1 adaptive control scheme to address the two main challenges involved in the Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) system: first, the bottomhole states are updated at a low rate, which can be viewed as unmeasured and thus need to be estimated in real time; and second, the drilling process is subject to uncertainties including unknown parameters (e.g., f...

This paper describes one method to attain a robust positioning control of pneumatic driving system comprising a pneumatic cylinder and PCM digital control valves. A pneumatic driving system has become one of interests in the industrial fields, however, the control characteristics are inevitably affected by the friction force and parameter changes of plant due to air compressibility. The control...
