Moreover, the process transfer function of the nonlinear system linearized at some operation point is approximated by a second order plus dead time transfer function. The controller performance is judged by simulations and it is evaluated using the ISE performance index. We compared this approach against a typical DTC-PID controller with improved results. © 2017engElsevier B.V.articlechemical processesdead time systemsinternal modellinear algebralinear systems2021-04-12Camacho, O.Scaglia, G.Lucia Quintero, O.10.1016/j.ifacol.2017.08.678
