  • Abstract
    The authors address basic research in computer science, control theory and material processing science wherein the focus is to develop a process control system which enables in-situ process model development. A generic control system architecture using qualitative physics is described together with an explanation of the system operation involving multiple cooperating expert systems. Specific details involving development and application of the control system to autoclave curing of composites are presented together with recent research results
