The anti-windup technique which can be used to tackle the problems of stability and
performance degradation for linear systems with saturated inputs is dealt with. The anti …

In this paper, several constructive linear and nonlinear anti-windup techniques are
presented and explained. Two approaches, namely direct linear anti-windup (DLAW) and …

This monograph details basic concepts and tools fundamental for the analysis and synthesis
of linear systems subject to actuator saturation and developments in recent research. The …

Synchronverters are grid-friendly inverters that mimic conventional synchronous generators
and play an important role in integrating different types of renewable energy sources …

In this paper we address control systems with redundant actuators and characterize the
concepts of weak and strong input redundancy. Based on this characterization, we propose …

Marine transportation offers a cost-effective and viable alternative to cargo aircraft, trains,
and trucks in general. Traffic control in congested waterways has recently become a …

A fundamental problem in control systems theory is that stability is not always guaranteed for
a closed-loop system even if the plant is open-loop stable. With the only knowledge of the …

This book investigates the stability and performance of control systems subject to actuator
saturation. Actuator saturation is frequently encountered in practical control systems as …

Summary Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controllers still represent the core control
method for achieving output regulation of either linear or nonlinear systems in the majority of …

For a class of linear dynamical systems with unknown parameters a direct model reference
adaptive control framework is developed that provides stable adaptation in the presence of …
