Stiction in control valves is the most common and long standing problem in industry, resulting in oscillations in process variables which subsequently lowers product quality and productivity. Developing a method to detect valve stiction in the early phase is imperative to avoid major disruptions to the plant operations. In this paper, nonlinear principal component analysis (NLPCA), which is widely known for its capability in unravelling nonlinear correlations in process data, is extended to investigate control valve stiction problems. Results from simulated case studies show that NLPCA is a promising tool for valve stiction diagnosis. date: 2008 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-77955173183&partnerID=40&md5=edd861c3afd8aaca5f993fde8e92be88 full_text_status: none publication: Proceedings of the IASTED International Conference on Modelling, Identification, and Control, MIC place_of_pub: Innsbruck refereed: TRUE isbn: 9780889867116 issn: 10258973 citation: Zabiri, H. and Maulud, A. and Ramasamy, M. and Thao, T.D.T.
