Simulation of High Precision Process Control for Set-up Dominant Processes (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Cox, S., Garside, J., & Kotsialos, A. (2013). Simulation of High Precision Process Control for Set-up Dominant Processes. . https://doi.org/10.1016/j.procir.2013.07.027

The main focus of this paper is to use discrete-event simulation models, to test the robustness of two process control methods against processes with different statistical distributions. The two methods under scrutiny are the Small-Batch Full-size im... Read More about Simulation of High Precision Process Control for Set-up Dominant Processes.
