The student is then exposed to a detailed review of digital process control and its application. A detailed examination is then performed of model predictive control ranging from dynamic matrix control, model algorithm control to design concepts. An in-depth application of statistical process control with advanced process control is then undertaken. The course is concluded by a study of advanced topics in process control with an emphasis on the application of the technologies. Learning Outcomes On successful completion of this Unit, students are expected to be able to: 1. Demonstrate a deep understanding of process control fundamentals Bloom's Level 6 2. Apply key principles of multivariable control in a range of contexts Bloom's Level 6 3. Demonstrate a thorough understanding and application of digital process control as. compared to the older analogue forms Bloom’s Level 6 4, Assess applications for and be able to apply model predictive control within a variety of contexts Bloom's Level 5 5.
