Control and Dynamic Systems V34: Advances in Control Mechanics Part 1 of 2

Control and Dynamic Systems: Advances in Theory and Applications, Volume 34: Advances in Control Mechanics, Part 1 of 2 presents the fundamental aspects of mechanical systems control theory. This book deals with microburst, a severe meteorological condition significant to aircraft control. Organized into seven chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the problem of stable control of an aircraft subjected to windshear caused by microburst. This text then examines the results concerning control of an aircraft under windshear conditions. Other chapters consider the robust control problem using the variable structure control method. This book discusses as well the problem of finding zeros of a nonlinear vector function by using methods of dynamical systems analysis. The final chapter deals with the role of singularities and their effect on the global trait of dynamical systems. This book is a valuable resource for mechanical and materials engineers. Research workers and students will also find this book useful.

Advances In Dynamics, Instrumentation And Control, Volume Ii - Proceedings Of The 2006 International Conference (Cdic '06)

This second volume is a compilation of 43 articles representing the scientific and technical advances in various aspects of system dynamics, instrumentation, measurement techniques, simulation and controls, which would serve as an important resource in the field. The articles represent state-of-the-art contributions in the fields of dynamics and control of nonlinear, hybrid and stochastic systems; nonlinear control theory; and adaptive, model predictive and real-time controls with applications involving fault diagnostics, manufacturing systems, vehicular dynamics, simulator designs, smart actuators, etc.
