ABSTRACT

By transition control, it is meant a type of control method that is employed when the plant transitions from one operating state to another as a result of a set point change or a disturbance. This paper develops an adaptive multiple model approach that simultaneously adapts the model parameters and the parameters of an H-infinity controller design. The method is then demonstrated on a nonlinear chemical reactor that transitions between two stable operating
states.
