Download or read book Nonlinear Dynamics and Control in Process Engineering — Recent Advances written by G. Continillo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is a collection of peer-reviewed articles on dynamics, control and simulation of chemical processes. It covers a variety of different methods for approaching process dynamics and control, including bifurcation analysis, computational fluid dynamics, neural network applications, numerical simulations of partial differential equations, process identification and control, Lagrangian analysis of mixing. The book is intended both for scientists and engineering involved in process analysis and control and for researchers (system engineering, mathematicians and physicists) interested in nonlinear sciences. It provides an overview of the typical problems of chemical and process engineering, in which dynamical system theory finds a significant and fertile field of applications.
