Operational optimization of furnaces could not only help to improve product quality but also benefit to reduce energy consumption and exhaust emission. Inspired by this idea, this paper presents a composite model predictive control(CMPC)strategy, which, taking advantage of distributed model predictive control architectures, combines tracking nonlinear model predictive control and economic nonlinear model predictive control metrics to keep process running smoothly and optimize operational conditions. The controllers connected with two kinds of communication networks are easy to organize and maintain, and stable to process interferences. A fast solution algorithm combining interior point solvers and Newton's method is accommodated to the CMPC realization, with reasonable CPU computing time and suitable online applications. Simulation for industrial case demonstrates that the proposed approach can ensure stable operations of furnaces, improve heat efficiency, and reduce the emission effectively.展开更多

In the course of historical development, ancestors of human beings created incomparable cultural heritage relics and spiritual civilization with their diligent hands and the great wisdom left us countless cultural heritage relics, many of them have become the famous wonder of the world. These civilizations and cultural heritage are located in Asia, Europe and America, Africa, for example, the Egyptian Pyramids, Acropolis in Athens. Mayan Civilization in Mexico, Mogao Grottoes of Dun Huang of China, Qin Terra-Cotta Warriors and Horses Figurines, Angkor Wat-Cambodia, Venice-ltaly, the Buddhas of Bamiyan in Afghanistan. The essay will mainly choose the 4 most famous representative cultural heritages worldwide to discuss their artistic characteristics, current situation and damage level and effective protective measures.展开更多
