The process control and instrumentation minor emphasizes developing skills and knowledge in theory, software and in the field. Students graduate ready to solve complex control problems in the chemical ...

Description: This course introduces fundamental concepts of process control systems, open-loop and closed-loop controls. Input output characteristics of process elements, dead time, and span.

Feedback-control schemes for linear systems have been around since at least the 17 th century, regulating pressure and distance between millstones and then, famously, to control James Watt’s steam ...

Fundamentals of Industrial Process, Measurement, and Control (FG05) is a lecture-based course that provides an overview of industrial measurement and control. Technicians, engineers and managers learn ...

With the continued need for shrinking pattern dimensions, semiconductor manufacturers continue to implement more complex patterning techniques, such as advanced multi-patterning, for the 10nm design ...

Overlay control based on DI metrology of optical targets has been the primary basis for run-to-run process control for many years. In previous work we described a scenario where optical overlay ...

Oscillation detection in process control systems remains of paramount importance in ensuring operational efficiency and maintaining product quality. The ability to accurately identify and characterise ...

In the lab, various phases of drug development occur in life sciences as new drugs and therapies are discovered and developed through extensive research. Labs are then used to ensure quality control ...

Industry 4.0 initially focused on discrete manufacturing, and now there is a growing focus on applying Industry 4.0 concepts to process automation. The same concepts are being applied to process ...
