    Predictive control with fuzzy characterization of percentage of solids, particle size and power demand for minerals grinding
    (IEEE, 2001) Orchard, M.; Flores Moltedo, Andrés Ricardo; Munoz, C.; Cipriano, Aldo
    The application of fuzzy predictive control to solve the regulatory problem in mineral grinding plants is considered. The controlled variables are percentage of solids, particle sizes and power demand and the manipulated variables are water and fresh ore flows. The controller uses linear multivariable models and the fuzzy characterization of the controlled variables, to calculate the manipulated variables. Simulation results under typical disturbances show a better performance compared with the conventional predictive control.
