On the optimal control of steel annealing processes via various versions of genetic and particle swarm optimization algorithms

This paper elucidates the computation of optimal controls for steel annealing processes as hybrid systems which comprise of one or more furnaces integrated with plant-wide planning and scheduling operations. A class of hybrid system is considered to capture the trade-off between metallurgical qualit...
