Introduction On the verge of a new version release, Oncontrol Technologies’ databridge integrates all the company’s product solutions. The software can be executed on both embedded systems and large mainframes, thus increasing the application range of the solution. It is designed to be the new lighthouse for Oncontrol’s …
Controladores de Lógica Fuzzy
Fuzzy Logic – an Introduction Boolean logic, commonly used in automatic control systems, is described through a bivalent lens, being either true or false. Nevertheless, the binary viewpoint cannot adequately describe vague or ambivalent scenarios. For example, one must set a strict boundary when using boolean …
Simbiose Industrial - Solução Desenvolvida
Introduction Industrial Symbiosis is the application of the circular production model in which materials, raw materials, and energy flow in a closed loop, keeping resources in the economy for as long as possible. There are two types of industrial symbiosis: inter- and intra-industrial. In this …
Simbiose Industrial
Introduction The industrial revolution triggered a new mindset in manufacturing organizations, leading to having as primary objectives linked to the increase of economic profit and resource throughput. The industrial revolution ideology is identified by a linear model, where raw materials are extracted, transformed into products, …
Componentes de filtragem microeletrónica mais comuns
The main purpose of Electrical filter components (EFC) is to reduce the electromagnetic disturbances in a microelectronic system from the external environment. In [1], these techniques are called “Devices Used to Suppress Transients”. Electromagnetic disturbances can be provided from different sources, such as: The EFC …
First-Principle Modelling
Introduction Simulation based on first principles has been an essential technique while designing new equipment orprocesses. It uses scientific laws from physics and chemistry to specify the relations between input andoutput. Considering the digital twin objectives, first-principle techniques have been used to promoteruntime verifiability of …
Curve fitting
Introduction It may be beneficial to approximate a succession of data points to mathematical functions. Technically,the described operation is generally called curve fitting/regression. The main applications of curvefitting are the following: Given a family of functions that best fits the data points, the problem boils …
Equipment Revamping
In current days when around 40% of companies registered increases of more than 200% in energy charges, the efficiency of industrial systems takes on an increasingly relevant role. Revamping helps in this context, increasing productivity and plant performance, updating technology, and leading to energy reductions. …
