Product Description
For a first-year graduate-level course on nonlinear systems. It may also be used for self-study or reference by engineers and applied mathematicians.
The text is written to build the level of mathematical sophistication from chapter to chapter. It has been reorganized into four parts: Basic analysis, Analysis of feedback systems, Advanced analysis, and Nonlinear feedback control.
--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
Synopsis
Adopting an intuitive, yet rigorous approach, this work provides extensive coverage of nonlinear systems and control theory. Student-friendly language, an abundance of detailed, worked examples, and progressively more sophisticated mathematics make the text appropriate and accessible to a range of student interests and levels. This edition extends coverage of input-output stability, feedback linearization and small-theorem, and adds coverage of passivity approach, back stepping control design, sliding mode control, numerical construction of phase portraits, comparison principle, comparison method, input-output linearization, differential geometric approach, extended linearization and over 100 new problems.
