Valve stiction may cause oscillations in control loops which increases variability in product quality, accelerates equipment wear and tear, or leads to system instability. In this paper, a series-parallel Recurrent Neural Network (NARXSP)-based stiction model is developed and its robustness against the uncertainty in the stiction parameters is tested under various conditions. It is shown that the NARXSP-based stiction model is robust when the stiction is less than 6 of the valve travel span. © 2009 IEEE. %Z cited By 0; Conference of 2009 International Conference on Signal Acquisition and Processing, ICSAP 2009 ; Conference Date: 3 April 2009 Through 5 April 2009; Conference Code:79615
