Abstract

A general state estimator requiring only discrete time measurements has been developed for nonlinear distributed parameter systems having moving boundaries. The state estimator has been combined with an optimal linear-quadratic feedback controller to provide a stochastic feedback control scheme for this class of problem. Both the state estimation and control algorithms were implemented in real time for a laboratory casting process and were found to perform well. The state estimation scheme would seem to hold the most interest for industrial applications.
