An Overview of Nonlinear Model Predictive Control Applications
Abstract
This paper provides an overview of nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) applications in industry, focusing primarily on recent applications reported by NMPC vendors. A brief summary of NMPC theory is presented to highlight issues pertinent to NMPC applications. Five industrial NMPC implementations are then discussed with reference to modeling, control, optimization, and implementation issues. Results from several industrial applications are presented to illustrate the benefits possible with NMPC technology. A discussion of future needs in NMPC theory and practice is provided to conclude the paper. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
