✦ Synopsis

This paper presents an application of Generalised Predictive Control (GPC) to the paper machine benchmaxk. The plant features a relatively large dead-time and severe retention level variation at the wire section. From simulations, results show that the controller has good performance when the the retention levels are at their nominal values, and that there is large output variation if the retention varies as specified.
