Encyclopedia of Robust Control: Volume II (Novel Approaches), (Hardcover)

Substantial information regarding the novel approaches in the field of robust control has been illustrated in this book. Robust control has been a topic of extensive research in the last three decades resulting in H_2/H_\infty and \mu design methods followed by studies on parametric robustness, earlier motivated by Kharitonov's theorem, the extension to non-linear time delay systems, and other recent methods. This book gives a broad overview of theoretical advances with the help of selected application examples. This book includes contributions by experts in this field from all over the world. It covers novel approaches in robust control. It also discusses problems in robust control theory and its functioning in electromechanical and robotic systems. This book serves as a complete guide for researchers, students and other interested individuals in the field of robotics and mechatronics.
