Abstract:
Identification and control of nonlinear systems have been always such important subjects based on nonlinearities of many processes. For instance, identification and control of gas transmission networks can be mentioned as one of the challenging problems related to their complexity and existence of different variables. The purpose of this project is identification of a nonlinear model for defining a gas transmission network and implementing a model predictive control algorithm based on identified model. Hence, first, a volterra model is implemented for identification of a pH neutralization process and then, that model is used for identification of a gas transmission network. Finally, by providing a reliable model, a nonlinear model predictive control based on volterra model is utilized to control a given gas transmission network
