Model Predictive Control of Non-Isothermal Dispersive Chemical Tubular Reactors with Recycle Flow
DownloadFall 2020
Tubular reactors have widespread applications in petrochemical, biochemical and pharmaceutical unit operations. The design of a control law, which accounts for stabilization of the concentration and the temperature of the chemical component during the reaction in an isothermal/non-isothermal...

Predictive Control, Estimation and Sensor Placement of Large-Scale Transport-Reaction Systems
DownloadFall 2023
Advanced process control and monitoring rely on the accurate description of complex processes and their dynamic behaviors. Typically, numerous industrial processes are characterized by either partial differential equations (PDEs) or ordinary differential equations (ODEs), depending on whether...

Residential construction manufacturing estimating framework: the case of lightweight timber framing
DownloadFall 2020
The term industrialized construction was adopted by the offsite construction industry where the building components are prefabricated in factories and then transported to the construction site for on-site assembly. With this shift towards industrialized construction, new challenges were...
