Industrial Automation has evolved from stand-alone, hard-wired relay panels to a contemporary, networked system that supports flexible manufacturing and enterprise integration. From precision control of machines and robots on the factory floor to flexible coordination of multiple cells of automation, advancements in control technologies have driven the evolution of industrial automation. The co...

the main task of this work is related with the design of a class of siso robust control law for theregulation of substrate concentration (cdo) of an industrial activated sludge wastewater plant. the controldesign is related with an uncertainty estimator (reduced order observer) based active control. departing from the tracking error between the desired and the current substrate concentrations t...

T ODAY, MOTION CONTROL TECHNIQUE is utilized in many industrial systems such as machine tools, industrial robots, positioning stages, material handling systems, electric transportation, disk drives, rolling mills, printers, film molding machines, etc. Since performance of Motion Control system employed in such machines affects their all-out performance, advances in Motion Control system are imp...

Model predictive control has proved its effectiveness in many industrial applications. Predictive algorithms are available in various commercial control packages but their implementation costs could be considerable. Control of industrial processes is often realized using small industrial controllers that offer only simple control structures, like PID control loop. The aim of the paper is to der...
