Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to present a self-contained description of the fun damentals of the theory of nonlinear control systems, with special emphasis on the differential geometric approach. The book is intended as a graduate text as weil as a reference to scientists and engineers involved in the analysis and design of feedback systems.

In addition to a major rearrangement of the last two Chapters of the first version, this new edition incorporates two additional Chapters at a more elementary level and an exposition of some relevant research findings which have occurred since 1985. In the past few years differential geometry has proved to be an effective means of analysis and design of nonlinear control systems as it was in the past for the Laplace transform, complex variable theory and linear algebra in relation to linear systems. Synthesis problems of longstanding interest like disturbance decoupling, noninteracting control, output regulation, and the shaping of the input-output response, can be dealt with relative ease, on the basis of mathematical concepts that can be easily acquired by a control scientist.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This eagerly awaited follow-up to Nonlinear Control Systems incorporates recent advances in the design of feedback laws, for the purpose of globally stabilizing nonlinear systems via state or output feedback. The author is one of the most prominent researchers in the field.

Book Investigation of Nonlinear Control Systems Part 7 Statistical Trends in Control Theory

Download or read book Investigation of Nonlinear Control Systems Part 7 Statistical Trends in Control Theory written by Nicholas Minorsky and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a review of the general scope of efforts and results on the statistical or non-deterministic aspects of control theory. Emphasis is placed on reporting the results for nonlinear control systems and on reviewing the Russian work in this area. The first six chapters reproduce in an abridged manner the principal topics of Pougacev's book 'Theory of Random Functions, ' Moscow, 1962, omitting all material that is not directly connected with control theory. The remainder of the report surveys those aspects of statistical nonlinear control theory which are important for engineering applications. A section deals with the problem of a random disturbance acting on a relay oscillating periodically. A number of problems associated with extremal systems are considered in the last chapter. This is presented in the spirit of an engineering synthesis rather than from a general point of view. (Author).

Book Analysis and Design of Nonlinear Control Systems

Download or read book Analysis and Design of Nonlinear Control Systems written by Alessandro Astolfi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-11-13 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a tribute to Prof. Alberto Isidori on the occasion of his 65th birthday. Prof. Isidori’s proli?c, pioneering and high-impact research activity has spanned over 35 years. Throughout his career, Prof. Isidori has developed ground-breaking results, has initiated researchdirections and has contributed towardsthe foundationofnonlinear controltheory.In addition,his dedication to explain intricate issues and di?cult concepts in a simple and rigorous way and to motivate young researchers has been instrumental to the intellectual growth of the nonlinear control community worldwide. The volume collects 27 contributions written by a total of 52 researchers. The principal author of each contribution has been selected among the - searchers who have worked with Prof. Isidori, have in?uenced his research activity, or have had the privilege and honour of being his PhD students. The contributions address a signi?cant number of control topics, including th- retical issues, advanced applications, emerging control directions and tutorial works. The diversity of the areas covered, the number of contributors and their international standing provide evidence of the impact of Prof. Isidori in the control and systems theory communities. The book has been divided into six parts: System Analysis, Optimization Methods, Feedback Design, Regulation, Geometric Methods and Asymptotic Analysis, re?ecting important control areas which have been strongly in- enced and, in some cases, pioneered by Prof. Isidori.

Book Introduction to Control of Oscillations and Chaos

Download or read book Introduction to Control of Oscillations and Chaos written by Aleksandr L?vovich Fradkov and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1998 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives an exposition of the exciting field of control of oscillatory and chaotic systems, which has numerous potential applications in mechanics, laser and chemical technologies, communications, biology and medicine, economics, ecology, etc.A novelty of the book is its systematic application of modern nonlinear and adaptive control theory to the new class of problems. The proposed control design methods are based on the concepts of Lyapunov functions, Poincare maps, speed-gradient and gradient algorithms. The conditions which ensure such control goals as an excitation or suppression of oscillations, synchronization and transformation from chaotic mode to the periodic one or vice versa, are established. The performance and robustness of control systems under disturbances and uncertainties are evaluated.The described methods and algorithms are illustrated by a number of examples, including classical models of oscillatory and chaotic systems: coupled pendula, brusselator, Lorenz, Van der Pol, Duffing, Henon and Chua systems. Practical examples from different fields of science and technology such as communications, growth of thin films, synchronization of chaotic generators based on tunnel diods, stabilization of swings in power systems, increasing predictability of business-cycles are also presented.The book includes many results on nonlinear and adaptive control published previously in Russian and therefore were not known to the West.Researchers, teachers and graduate students in the fields of electrical and mechanical engineering, physics, chemistry, biology, economics will find this book most useful. Applied mathematicians and control engineers from various fields of technology dealing with complex oscillatory systems will also benefit from it.
