Choice of Tuning Method

to summarise, we should be looking for the following features in a tuning method. 

We would thus need several hundred sets of tuning formulae to cover all the options. It is not surprising therefore that no published technique has yet proved effective for all situations. 

Of course these figures can lead the engineer into the same trap. They again offer a set of standard approaches to cover aU simations. However the approaches embody all the recommendations developed in this chapter and, where practical, they leave the engineer some flexibility in their appUcation. Used with care, almost any controller can be optimally tuned.
