Lectures on Modelling and Control of Dynamic Systems from Patrick Lanusse of Bordeaux INP, France.

Use First-Principles Modeling to Get FOPDT Coefficient Values

Conventionally, we obtain model coefficient values by open-loop step-testing of the process; but this creates undesirable process upsets, and only reveals the local process behavior.  This...
