Fall 2012
Sampled-data control theory is the mathematical foundation required for the analysis and design of sampled-data systems. An important assumption in the development of conventional sampled-data control theory is that measurement sampling periods are uniform. However, with the widespread use of...

Fall 2012
In this thesis, two Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) are designed in MATLAB to perform causality analysis and alarm management. Finding out the root-cause of a fault scenario or an abnormality in a large industrial process typically requires one to logically analyze cause and effect relationships...

Spring 2012
The main focus of this thesis is on developing parsimonious models using measured process data and subsequent use of these models in the design of controllers for chemical engineering processes, in particular, for processes with large dead times. The application case studies presented and...
