As a powerful tool to study nonlinear systems and hybrid systems, piecewise affine (PWA) systems have been widely applied to mechanical systems. Control and Estimation of Piecewise Affine Systems pres
The H8 control has been one of the important robust control approaches since the 1980s. This book extends the area to nonlinear stochastic H2/H8 control, and studies more complex and practically usefu
From the ox carts and pottery wheels the spacecrafts and disk drives, efficiency and quality has always been dependent on the engineer’s ability to anticipate and control the effects of vibration. And
This monograph focuses on characterizing the stability and performance consequences of inserting limited-capacity communication networks within a control loop. The text shows how integration of the id
This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the theory of reset control. It draws on the authors’ own research, and that of others, to explore the application of reset control in a variety of s
More than a decade ago, world-renowned control systems authority Frank L. Lewis introduced what would become a standard textbook on estimation, under the title Optimal Estimation, used in top universi
