Systems & Controls

This text links genetic algorithms (GAs) and the design of robust control systems. After laying a foundation in the basics of GAs and genetic programming, it demonstrates the power of these tools for developing optimal robust controllers for linear control systems, optimal disturbance rejection cont..

Based on years of industrial and research experience, this book builds a practical understanding of the features and functions of various electromagnetic and electromechanical devices necessary to meet specific industrial requirements. Each chapter works from theory to design, applications, and nume..

This text provides the reader with a grounding in sliding mode control and is appropriate for the graduate with a basic knowledge of classical control theory and some knowledge of state-space methods. From this basis, more advanced theoretical..

Sliding Mode Control (SMC) is gaining importance as a universal design tool for the robust control of linear and nonlinear systems. Consequently, SMC has seen many developments and improvements in recent years as well as a great increase in applications. This second edition promotes a deeper underst..

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 useful mixed H2/H8 controller synthesis rather than the pure H8 control. Different from the commonly used..
