Process control & optimization

Objectifs

At the end of this module, the student will have understood and be able to explain (main concepts):

1. how to proceed for the simulation and regulation of dynamic systems via:

a) An open programming platform (Matlab)

b) A multi-domain dynamic system analyzer (Simulink)

2. how to formulate and solve an optimization problem (single-objective or multi-objective) through suited methods (derivative-based or evolutionary)

The student will be able to:

3. compare different methods for the regulation and optimization of a dynamic industrial case study (Waste Water Treatment Plant – WWTP)
