Riassunto:

It is a valuable contribution to the task of filling the theory and practice gap that exists in Process Control. The volume editor has drawn together a number of industrial case studies where Generic Model Control has been successfully applied. Each case study is documented and described in detail. Nonlinear Process Control will be of particular interest to industrial practitioners. It provides a tutorial introduction to Generic Model Control and assists them in applying modern control methods to their processes.
