Building on the knowledge and the goals of the best-selling book, Advanced Control Unleashed, this portable pocket guide goes beyond theoretical concepts and provides new insight into the implementation practices after the objectives have been defined and the technology decisions have been made.

Recognizing the opportunity that models present to capture and exploit plant knowledge, the authors share their expertise on the concepts, procedures, and examples needed to construct and apply different models through the use of "state of the art" software for simulation and model predictive control. Sharing the results of the extensive testing they performed and to extend the utility of Models Unleashed, the authors have included a Web site link that lets you download Microsoft Excel spreadsheets and Powerpoint files.

You don't need an advanced degree to get the most out of this pocket guide. Models Unleashed will help engineers closest to the application take advantage of their experience by embedding it in a model and a control system.
