Optimal and Robust Control

Más información sobre el libro

This new edition deals with advanced automatic control techniques, paying particular attention to robustness-the ability to guarantee stability in the presence of uncertainty. It explains advanced techniques for handling uncertainty and optimizing the control loop and details analytical strategies for obtaining reduced order models. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1.
