Adaptive interval model control and application
Chuan Zhang, Bruce L. Walcott · 2004
In many manufacturing processes, an interval model is a useful description of the processes for control. Conditions for the same process can vary widely. Interval models take into account these variations and consequently can have wide applications. However, interval models present problems when their intervals are too wide or not accurate. An adaptive interval model control which alters the interval has been proposed in this paper. Simulations verify its effectiveness. It has been used to successfully control a novel arc welding process.
