En la actualidad, las asignaturas de control necesitan disponer de nuevas plantas y prototipos de laboratorio para poder realizar practicas eficientes y equiparables en su totalidad a lo existente en la vida real; mejorando de este modo el aprendizaje y entendimiento asi como, una mejor asimilacion de los conceptos teoricos. Se describen en este trabajo dos plantas con las que poner en practica diferentes estrategias de control. Igualmente, se describen tres supuestos diferentes como punto de partida para clases practicas en el laboratorio. Las posibilidades de supuestos de control a implementar en las maquetas son numerosas, sera el instructor el que fije los limites de uso dentro de sus prestaciones. Las estrategias de control expuestas son un simple ejemplo de las multiples posibilidades que ofrecen las maquetas descritas. Tanto se pueden implementar estrategias tradicionales de control como aquellas mas incipientes. De los elementos de control que se pueden emplear, se describen pruebas con automatas programables y con tarjetas de adquisicion de datos, sera tambien en este caso el propio usuario el que defina la herramienta a emplear. Me gustaria agradecer a la U. de Coruna."

Se lleva a cabo en este libro el estudio de reguladores PID desde varios metodos de diseno, haciendo hincapie en el ajuste empirico, en los que seran aplicables los sistemas basados en conocimiento en cuanto a diseno se refiere. Se particulariza el estudio para sistemas lineales continuos e invariantes, con la finalidad de obtener un modelo inteligente que permita hallar parametros de ajuste del regulador para optimizar una determinada especificacion. Tras la obtencion del modelo inteligente, se lleva a cabo finalmente la comprobacion de su funcionamiento sobre sistemas posibles sobre los que puede ser de aplicacion."

Los controladores basados en la estructura PID son los mas utilizados en la industria siendo un hecho constatado, que en mas del 90% de las aplicaciones industriales existe un controlador de este tipo. A pesar de los avances revolucionarios en la teoria del control, el controlador PID permanece como una de las tecnicas de regulacion mas utilizadas. Esto es debido principalmente a su simplicidad y comportamiento satisfactorio en una amplia variedad de sistemas. La seleccion de los parametros de sintonizacion del regulador que permiten obtener unas determinadas especificaciones es una tarea clave, ya que de ella dependen caracteristicas fundamentales del sistema de control, como son la estabilidad y la respuesta temporal. Se aborda en este documento todo lo referente a los inicios de este controlador, asi como un repaso a las tecnicas existentes de ajuste. Asimismo se lleva a cabo un repaso del estado actual y se muestran tecnicas que en un futuro no muy lejano seran realidad en controladores instalados en ambitos industriales. Los autores muestran su agradecimiento al Ministerio de Economia y Competitividad por la financiacion parcial mediante el proyecto TIN2010-21272-C02-01."
