Dynamic
Simulators for Process Control and Optimization as well as for Operator Training
in Pulp and Paper Industry - Erik Dahlquist and Fredrik Wallin, Malardalen
University ,Vasteras, Sweden Hakan Ekwall, ABB Industry,Vasteras, Sweden -
By using a dynamic physical model, that is adapted to real process data, robust
mathematical process models can be created. By doing this it is possible to
build in process know how from many different sources, and also to include
factors, that are not easy to measure. From the dynamic model a training
simulator can be made. From the dynamic model it may also be possible to do a
model reduction to get an MPC, a Model Predictive Control. Data reconciliation
is needed, to keep control of the measurements of all kind. A decision support
system keeps control over the process status, to support operators. The
production is also optimized at several levels. These functions may also be
achieved by using principally the samemathematical models and algorithms.

Modelling
and Simulation in Advanced Control - Esko K. Juuso - Operating conditions
are often changing so strongly that the changes in nonlinearities must be taken
into account. Various approaches exist for handling nonlinearities in changing
operating environment: nonlinear control is extended with adaptation approaches,
model-based methodologies, intelligent analysers and expertise. Linguistic
equation (LE) controllers combine various control strategies in a compact
matrix-based environment. Importance of modelling and simulation is increasing
with integration of the control approaches as the increasing number of
adjustable parameters requires efficient comparisons of alternatives. Predefined
adaptation models and mechanisms obtained by tuning with modelling and
simulation facilitate fast operation in changing process conditions. The
performance of these systems consisting of practical and interactive small scale
intelligent systems has been demonstrated in several applications. This paper
has been prepared for the Sim-Serv roadmap of continuous and hybrid simulation.

Simulation
Aids In The Automation Of Industrial Processes - Juan Atanasio Carrasco,
Matti Paljakka - The use of simulation aids in the automation of industrial
processes is not a new idea. Simulation facilitates the realization of
engineering activities related with the installation and the optimization of
those control systems in real plants. Nowadays the use of simulation aids is a
simpler issue because of the characteristics of current process control systems
and current commercial process simulation tools. It will be easier in a near
future, when the majority of the control systems will be more based on the use
of software controllers. This paper has two main objectives: first a study of
the state of the art of simulation for process control and second a research on
the use of simulators for automation testing due to the fact that this issue is
one of the main objectives of the Sim-Serv community.
