In the algorithm, N free control moves, a saturated local control law and the terminal weighting matrices are solved by a minimization problem based on linear matrix inequality （LMI） constraints online. Compared with the algorithm with a nonsaturated local law, the presented algorithm improves the performances of the closed-loop systems such as feasibility and optimality. This model predictive control （MPC） algorithm is applied to an industrial continuous stirred tank reactor （CSTR） with explicit input constraint. The simulation results demonstrate that the presented algorithm is effective.展开更多

The reason why the original DMC algorithm cannot be applied to these processes is analyzed. The shifting matrix is transformed into another form and the corresponding theorem is proved, then its applicable range is extended. Compared with other algorithms on the integral processes, this algorithm is more practical and simple to implement. Simulation results also prove its validity. Applying this algorithm, we succeed in the control of the boiler level system in power units.展开更多

Multiple models are used to capture the nonlinear process dynamics relating to gain and time constant variations. The multi-model strategy was implemented on several controllers such as Smith-Predictor using PI （Proportional-lntegral） and GPC （Generalized Predictive Control）. Computer simulations and experiments were conducted on several nonlinear systems and compared to the original form of these controllers. The enhanced approach was tested on controlling the screw speed of an injection molding machine and temperature of a steel cylinder.展开更多
