Why do engineers not apply advanced modeling/control technologies for real systems?

1. Problem: Obstacles preventing engineers from applying advanced modeling and control technologies in industry
Complex and difficult …
  • Traditional Modeling is difficult (theory), may take long
  • Traditional Control design/tuning is difficult (theory), may take long

2. Control application Scenario
Starting Point …
  • Measured data acquired from plants (temperature, pressure, speed, position, torque, force, etc.)
Goal ...
  • models for direct use in simulation, test or further analysis
  • controllers for direct use in the real system

3. Solution: Automated process
  • Automatic Model generation based on measurements
  • Automatic model-based Controller Design and Tuning
No expert knowledge required, ready for immediate use for industrial applications
Automatic  ->  ecICP  ->  Process-enabled


4. Development procedure in detail
  • Stimulate the system and save the measured data (different operating points)
  • Run ecICP to generate models and controllers automatically
  • Implement using e.g. Simulink, LabVIEW (and alike) and ecCST control algorithm
  • Run closed control loop model in realtime using the simulation environment available and verify the results
