Cover of Energy Systems Engineering
Inspired by the leading authority in the field, the Centre for Process Systems Engineering at Imperial College London, this book includes theoretical developments, algorithms, methodologies and tools in process systems engineering and applications from the chemical, energy, molecular, biomedical and other areas. It spans a whole range of length scales seen in manufacturing industries, from molecular and nanoscale phenomena to enterprise-wide optimization and control. As such, this will appeal to a broad readership, since the topic applies not only to all technical processes but also due to the interdisciplinary expertise required to solve the challenge.
The ultimate reference work for years to come.

Cover of Multi-Parametric Programming
This first book to cover all aspects of multi-parametric programming and its applications in process systems engineering includes theoretical developments and algorithms in multi-parametric programming with applications from the manufacturing sector and energy and environment analysis. The volume thus reflects the importance of fundamental research in multi-parametric programming applications, developing mechanisms for the transfer of the new technology to industrial problems. Since the topic applies to a wide range of process systems, as well as due to the interdisciplinary expertise required to solve the challenge, this reference will find a broad readership.

Cover of Multi-Parametric Model-Based Control
This volume covers theoretical advances and developments, computational challenges and tools as well as applications in the area of multi-parametric model based control. Part I is concerned with the presentation of algorithms for parametric model based control focusing on:* novel frameworks for the derivation of explicit optimal control policies for continuous time-linear dynamic systems* new theoretical developments on hybrid model based control* methods for obtaining the explicit robust model-based tracking control* theoretical frameworks for parametric dynamic optimization and* recent developments for continuous-time systems Part II presents a series of application in the following areas:* the incorporation of advanced model based controllers in a simultaneous process design and control framework for complex separation systems* the development of advanced model based control techniques for regulating the blood glucose for patients with Type 1 diabetes* the design of model predictive and parametric controllers for anesthesia.* the development of optimal control policies in a pilot plant exothermic reactor The volume is intended for academics and researchers that carry out model based control research, industrial practitioners involved in the control of new and existing processes and products, policy makers, as well as for educational purposes both in academia and industry.
