An adaptive MPC is developed taking into account the schedul- ing parameters in the multi-model and a terminal invariant set for all the systems that are within the system polytope. This proposed method uses a virtual model-process tuning variable, which is optimized to find the best Linear Time Invariant ( LTI ) prediction sequence for the horizon, based on the LTI vertices of the polytopic system. Finally, the proposed adaptive MPC is applied to a continuous stirred tank reac- tor (CSTR) system. Discussions are set upon the a-priori design procedure, the online computational effort and application difficulties.pdfengembargoedAccesshttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 InternacionalModel predictive controlMulti-model systemsStabilityFeasibilityCSTRinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article.10.1016/j.compchemeng.2020.107195
