    • English
    Optimal State Estimation for Process Monitoring, Fault Diagnosis and Control presents various mechanistic model based state estimators and data-driven model based state estimators with a special emphasis on their development and applications to process monitoring, fault diagnosis and control. The design and analysis of different state estimators are highlighted with a number of applications and case studies concerning to various real chemical and biochemical processes. The book starts with the introduction of basic concepts, extending to classical methods and successively leading to advances in this field. Design and implementation of various classical and advanced state estimation methods to solve a wide variety of problems makes this book immensely useful for the audience working in different disciplines in academics, research and industry in areas concerning to process monitoring, fault diagnosis, control and related disciplines.

  • Spacecraft Attitude Control

    A Linear Matrix Inequality Approach
    • 1st Edition
    • Chuang Liu + 3 more
    • English
    Spacecraft Attitude Control: A Linear Matrix Inequality Approach solves problemsfor spacecraft attitude control systems using convex optimization and, specifi cally,through a linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach. High-precision pointing and improvedrobustness in the face of external disturbances and other uncertainties are requirementsfor the current generation of spacecraft. This book presents an LMI approach to spacecraftattitude control and shows that all uncertainties in the maneuvering process can besolved numerically. It explains how a model-like state space can be developed through amathematical presentation of attitude control systems, allowing the controller in question tobe applied universally. The authors describe a wide variety of novel and robust controllers,applicab... both to spacecraft attitude control and easily extendable to second-ordersystems. Spacecraft Attitude Control provides its readers with an accessible introductionto spacecraft attitude control and robust systems, giving an extensive survey of currentresearch and helping researchers improve robust control performance.

    Biochemicals and Materials Production from Sustainable Biomass Resources
    • 1st Edition
    • Hu Li + 3 more
    • English
    Biochemicals and Materials Production from Sustainable Biomass Resources provides a detailed overview of the experimentally developed approaches and strategies that facilitate carbon-based materials and fine chemicals derivation from biomass feedstocks with robust catalyst systems and renewed conversion routes. In addition, the book highlights theoretical methods like techno-economic analysis of biobutanol synthesis. As academia and industry are now striving to substitute fossil-based chemicals with alternative renewable resources, second-generation lignocellulosic biomass which does not depend on the food cycle has become increasingly important. Lignocellulosic biomass is composed of three major polymeric components - lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose. The polymers can be degraded into monomeric counterparts through selective conversion routes like hydrolysis of cellulose to glucose and of hemicellulose to xylose.
