The primary disadvantage of current design techniques for model predictive control (MPC) is
their inability to deal explicitly with plant model uncertainty. In this paper, we present a new …

" Space Vehicle Dynamics and Control provides a solid foundation in dynamic modeling,
analysis, and control of space vehicles. More than 200 figures, photographs, and tables are …

This text deals with the most fundamental deficiency of modern theory control: the lack of an
easily applicable method for the design of low order controllers. It shows that solutions to …

This article presents an active vibration control of seismically excited building structures. The
control scheme is based on active disturbance rejection control, which is an attractive …

This is a unified collection of important recent results for the design of robust controllers for
uncertain systems, primarily based on H8 control theory or its stochastic counterpart, risk …

A necessary and sufficient condition, expressed simply as the dc loop gain (ie, the loop gain
at zero frequency) being less than unity, is given in this note to guarantee the internal …

This paper gives a brief survey of linear and nonlinear Proportional-Integral-Observer
design. This observer has the ability to estimate simultaneously the states and unknown …

Tensor Product Model Transformation in Polytopic Model-Based Control offers a new
perspective of control system design. Instead of relying solely on the formulation of more …

New challenges in engineering design lead to multiobjective (multicriteria) problems. In this
context, the Pareto front supplies a set of solutions where the designer (decision-maker) has …

This book is primarily a research monograph that presents in a unified man ner some recent
research on a class of hybrid dynamical systems (HDS). The book is intended both for …
