The recognition honors the Braskem facility’s exceptional performance in achieving world-class PID control loop effectiveness as measured by Overall Controller Effectiveness (OCE). MANCHESTER, CT, ...
Wind turbine control systems have evolved significantly over the past decades, moving from simple classical controllers to sophisticated artificial intelligence-based strategies. Early utility-scale ...
Dynamic shaft seals often fail in submersible systems, but the SplashValve eliminates seals entirely—using magnetic coupling for torque transfer through a sealed housing. Take note, there’s a quiz at ...
You’ll learn about instrumentation and valves. The article identifies the importance of positioners in fast loops. How first-principle dynamic simulations provide insights into compressor surge, ...
In the latest post of the Ask the Automation Pros blog series, the pros explore how to deal with interacting PID loops. I kept thinking “what aren’t the sources?!” A plant is full to the brim with ...
Balancing robots are always fun to see, as they often take forms we’re not used to, such as a box standing on its corner. This project, submitted by [Alexchunlin], showcases a cool single motor ...
Not all DNA looks like the familiar double helix. Sometimes, parts of our genetic code fold into unusual shapes under certain conditions. One such structure known as a G-quadruplex (G4) looks like a ...
Abstract: This article introduces a nonlinear adaptive proportional-integral-derivative (PID) tracking control methodology suitable for a class of multi-in-multi-out nonlinear systems. By ...
