Recently, the subject of nonlinear control systems analysis has grown rapidly and this book provides a simple and self-contained presentation of their stability and feedback stabilization which enables the reader to learn and understand major techniques used in mathematical cont…
"This book comprehensively presents a recently developed novel methodology for analysis and control of time-delay systems. Time-delays frequently occurs in engineering and science. Such time-delays can cause problems (e.g. instability) and limit the achievable performance of con…
Working through this student-centred text readers will be brought up to speed with the modelling of control systems using Laplace, and given a solid grounding of the pivotal role of control systems across the spectrum of modern engineering. A clear, readable text is supported by…
"At publication, The Control Handbook immediately became the definitive resource that engineers working with modern control systems required. Among its many accolades, that first edition was cited by the AAP as the Best Engineering Handbook of 1996. Now, 15 years later, William …

The book presents a representative selection of all publications published between 01/2009 and 06/2010 in various books, journals and conference proceedings by the researchers of the institute cluster: IMA - Institute of Information Management in Mechanical Engineering ZLW - Cen…
"Written for researchers and postgraduate students in Control Engineering, as well as professionals in the Hard Disk Drive industry, this book discusses highprecision and fast servo controls in Hard Disk Drives (HDDs). The editors present a number of control algorithms that enab…
"This book deals with the class of singular systems with random abrupt changes also known as singular Markovian jump systems. Many problems like stochastic stability, stochastic stabilization using state feedback control and static output control, H[subscript infinity] control, …
Imagine a public storage system that has a place online for structured data about everything that exists--or that could exist. This book introduces Fluidinfo, a system that enables you to store information about anything, real or imaginary, in any digital form. You'll learn how …
Extremum seeking control tracks a varying maximum or minimum in a performance function such as a cost. It attempts to determine the optimal performance of a control system as it operates, thereby reducing downtime and the need for system analysis. Extremum Seeking Control and Ap…
Describing the principles and applications of single-input, single-output and multivariable predictive control in a simple and lively manner, this practical book also considers such issues as the handling of on-off control, nonlinearities and decoupling problems. It gives guidel…
