Introduction to fractional-order control: A practical laboratory approach
D Thomson, F Padula - IFAC-PapersOnLine, 2022 - Elsevier
In this paper we propose the use of a temperature control problem as a method to introduce
fractional modeling and control to students. The control problem is based on a simple …
