β¦ Synopsis
A state-space model of a discharge air system (DAS) is developed. Simulation results obtained from the developed model compare well with the published experimental data.
The optimal control strategies and optimal performance of DAS to step changes in setpoints are given for two cases: a heating case with temperature control, and a cooling case with temperature and humidity control. Results show that the outputs (discharge air temperature and humidity ratio) of the system reach the chosen setpoints rapidly and smoothly compared with that of PI control results published in the literature.

## Abstract Assessing the consequences of exceptional events, such as failures and sudden changes in product demand or rawβmaterial prices, is of great importance to the operation of chemical processes. Such an exceptional event and the resulting behavior of the process are called a scenario in thi
This paper proposes an integrated approach to the modelling and optimization of structural control systems in tall buildings. In this approach, an artificial neural network is applied to model the structural dynamic responses of tall buildings subjected to strong earthquakes, and a genetic algorithm
## Abstract A hybrid automaton model is proposed in this paper for hybrid systems. The model, with particular emphasis on process control applications, is based on the dynamic features of hybrid systems. It takes into account the discrete dynamics of hybrid systems in particular and can clearly sep
The objective of this study is to apply the differential dynamic programming (DDP) technique of optimal control to heating, ventilating and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems and to compare its performance with a non-linear programming (NLP) technique using the sequential quadratic programming method.
