Cheese, Catastrophes, & Process Control: Crash Course Engineering #25

Engineering, like life, could really use a lot more cheese. In this episode of Crash Course Engineering, we’ll learn about a cheese factory in Toronto and what it can teach us about process control systems. We’ll explore feedforward and feedback systems, and see how integrating them both with cascade control creates a system made to handle uncertainty.

Crash Course Engineering is produced in association with PBS Digital Studios.
