TLDR
In this paper, the authors present new tuning rules for PI control of processes with essentially monotone step response that are typically encountered in process control, based on characterization of process dynamics by three parameters that can be obtained from a step response experiment.
Abstract
This paper presents new tuning rules for PIcontrol of processes with essentially monotone step response that aretypically encountered in process control. The rules are based oncharacterization of process dynamics by three parameters that can beobtained from a step response experiment. The rules are obtained bymaximizing integral gain subject to a constraint on themaximum sensitivity. They are almost as simple as theZiegler-Nichols tuning rules but they give substantially betterperformance.

Practical Tuning Rule Development for Fractional Order Proportional and Integral

TL;DR: In this article, a generalized MIGO-based controller tuning method is proposed to handle the FO-PI case, called F-MIGO, given the fractional order, which is then used to develop tuning rules for the FOPDT class of dynamic systems.

Internal model control: PID controller design

TL;DR: For a large number of single input-single output (SISO) models typically used in the process industries, the Internal Model Control design procedure is shown to lead to PID controllers, occaslonally augmented with a first-order lag.

Refinements of the Ziegler-Nichols tuning formula

TL;DR: It is shown that, for excessive overshoot in the set-point response, set- point weighting can reduce the overshoot to specified values, and the original Ziegler-Nichols tuning formula can be retained, and it is also shown thatSet-point weighting is superior to the conventional solution of reducing large overshoot by gain detuning or set- Point filtering.

Design of PI controllers based on non-convex optimization

TL;DR: The design is based on optimization of load disturbance rejection with constraints on sensitivity and weighting of set point response, leading to a non-convex optimization problem.
