This article is an introduction to feedback control design for a family of robotic aerial vehicles
with vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) capabilities such as quadrotors, ducted-fan tail …

The concept of zero dynamics of a nonlinear system was introduced about thirty years ago
as nonlinear analogue of the concept of transmission zero of the transfer function of a …

This note studies the adaptive optimal output regulation problem for continuous-time linear
systems, which aims to achieve asymptotic tracking and disturbance rejection by minimizing …

In this paper, automatic motion control is investigated for wheeled inverted pendulum (WIP)
models, which have been widely applied for modeling of a large range of two wheeled …

In this document, we present the main ideas and results concerning high‐gain observers
and some of their applications in control. The introduction gives a brief history of the topic …

The analysis and design of nonlinear feedback systems has recently undergone an
exceptionally rich period of progress and maturation, fueled, to a great extent, by (1) the …

At publication, The Control Handbook immediately became the definitive resource that
engineers working with modern control systems required. Among its many accolades, that …

The paper studies the distributed optimization problem for a class of nonlinear multiagent
systems in the presence of external disturbances. To solve the problem, we need to achieve …
