Systems and methods for building a model-based control solution

A system comprising:

• a model-based control platform comprising:
• a processor sub-unit;
• a memory sub-unit operatively coupled to the processor sub-unit;
• a component model library;
• a model-based analytic algorithm library;
• and
• a model-based control definition sub-unit operatively coupled to the processor sub-unit and configured to:
• obtain a first set of component models from the component model library;
• define a system model by interconnecting the first set of component models;
• obtain a first model-based analytic algorithm from the model-based analytic algorithm library;
• and
• associate the first model-based analytic algorithm with the system model to generate a model-based control solution;
• a validation subsystem communicatively coupled to the model-based control platform, wherein the validation subsystem is configured to validate the generated model-based control solution, via a simulation of the model-based analytic algorithm and the system model;
• and
• an industrial control subsystem communicatively coupled to the model-based control platform and configured to execute the model-based control solution based on validation of the generated model-based control solution.

A non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions to enable at least one processor to:

• obtain a first set of component models from a component model library;
• define a system model by interconnecting the first set of component models;
• obtain a first model-based analytic algorithm from a model-based analytic algorithm library;
• and
• associate the first model-based analytic algorithm with the system model to generate the model-based control solution.
