ALZATE, Alex; GOMEZ, Lina  y  ALVAREZ, Hernán. Simultaneous Process and Control Design using Set Theory. Prospect. [online]. 2015, vol.13, n.1, pp.12-23. ISSN 1692-8261.  https://doi.org/10.15665/rp.v13i1.355.

In simultaneous design of process both the process and its control system at the same time are designed, but process’ controllability in a binary way is evaluated. This paper introduces a methodology for simultaneous design, based on Set-Theoretic Methods in Control. In the given methods there is a different approach of understanding the process’ state controllability, which is complementary to the classical look, because it is possible to quantify controllability. The proposed methodology is successfully applied to a CSTR’s benchmark, and it is observed that after the methodology is applied, the reactor volume must be decreased, in order to get a best value of controllability’s indicator, which it is evidenced in an improved performance of the closed loop.
