Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen består av två delar. Den första delen behandlar reglering av processer med lång dödtid. Avhandlingen ger förslag på hur regulatorer för dessa processer ska dimensioneras och jämför sedan prestanda hos dessa regulatorer med vanliga PID-regulatorer. Avhandlingens andra del handlar om metoder för automatisk övervakning av reglerkretsar i processindustrin. TvåThe thesis contains two parts, dead-time compensation and performance monitoring. The first part on dead-time compensation is about robust tuning procedures for dead-time compensating controllers (DTC). Both stable and integrating processes are considered. Simple experiments are performed to obtain process models as well as bounds on the allowable bandwidth for stability. The DTCs used have few pa
