    Design of a robust H2 state feedback temperature controller for a steel slab reheating furnace
    (MDPI, 2020-03-01)
    This article addresses the design of a robust H2 state feedback controller (H2-SFC) for the effective temperature control in the heating zone of the steel slab reheating furnace. Based on the available field data and system identification procedures, a mathematical model of the heating zone is derived, which presents autoregressive-moving average with exogenous input (ARMAX) structure and fourth order. The design of an H2-SFC controller for the effective control of the heating zone temperature of the slab reheating furnace under study is developed. The simulation results of the designed control system showed its high effectiveness compared to the conventional PID control.

    Design of a Robust MPC for Copper Recovery in an Industrial Flotation Column
    (Elsevier B.V., 2023-07-01)
    This paper presents the design of a RMPC (Robust Model Predictive Controller) for effective control of the copper recovery in an industrial flotation column. Copper ore properties vary frequently causing uncertainties and disturbances in the dynamics of the recovery process in the flotation column. Using the system identification tools, a MIMO model of this plant was achieved, whose validation results exhibited adequacy degrees of 88.21% for froth depth, and 87.32% for air holdup. The design of the RMPC was carried out based on the nominal MIMO model and its obtained uncertainties. It was demonstrated that the designed RMPC makes it possible to control the process with high precision under various industrial operation scenarios. The simulation results of the control system designed with the RMPC and the GPC (Generalized Predictive Controller) revealed an improved performance when using the RMPC.
