Multi-objective Performance Evaluation of Controllers for a Thermal Process

Enhancing controller’s tuning reliability with multi-objective optimisation: From Model in the loop to Hardware in the loop

“…Given that design objectives for decision making and for optimisation will be stated, a reduced space for MCDM will be sought (up to 3 objectives); nevertheless, as auxiliary visualization, a LD tool will be used 6 , due to its capabilities to propagate interpretability from J * P to Θ * P and due to its robustness, scalability and simplicity properties [Tušar and Filipič, 2014]. They have been used before for design applications [Perera et al, 2013, Pourzeynali et al, 2013 and controller tuning [Hajiloo et al, 2012, Koetje et al, 2013. Additionally, in order to evaluate 2-5 design alternatives, radial plots 7 are used due to their simplicity to depict few design options with several design objectives.…”
