We present a probabilistic error correction technique to be used with an average magnitude di erence function (AMDF) based pitch detector. This error correction routine provides a very simple method to correct errors in pitch period estimation. Used in conjunction with the computationally e cient AMDF, the result is a fast and accurate pitch detector. In performance tests on the CSTR (Center fo...

Principal differential analysis (PDA) is an alternative parameter estimation technique for differential equation models in which basis functions (e.g., B-splines) are fitted to dynamic data. Derivatives of the resulting empirical expressions are used to avoid solving differential equations when estimating parameters. Benefits and shortcomings of PDA were examined using a simple continuous stirr...

This paper investigates the application of fuzzy model and generalised predictive control strategy for the construction of a model-based predictive fuzzy controller for non-linear processes. In this method a GPC controller is used with the Takagi Sugeno Kang (TSK) piece-wise fuzzy modeling approach in an adaptive strategy. The developed method is applied to control a continuous stirred tank rea...

São relatadas, pela primeira vez, a observação de oscilações periódicas, em reator agitado de fluxo contínuo (CSTR), para o sistema bromato-ácido oxálico-Ce(IV)-acetona-ácido sulfúrico. Identificou-se que a reação entre Ce(IV) e a acetona, até então não descrita na literatura e que ocorre antes dos reagentes serem adicionados ao reator, é um fator decisivo para o aparecimento de oscilações regu...

—The article deals with the cascade nonlinear control of a chemical continuous stirred tank reactor. The control is performed in primary and secondary control-loops where the primary controlled output of the reactor is a concentration of the main reaction product and the secondary output is the reactant temperature. A common control input is the coolant flow rate. The controller in the primary ...

This paper presents a comparative analysis of continuously stirred tank reactor (CSTR) control based on adaptive control and optimal tuning of PID control based on particle swarm optimization. In the design of adaptive control, Model reference adaptive control (MRAC) scheme is used, in which the adaptation law have been developed by MIT rule & Lyapunov’s rule. In PSO control parameters of PID c...
