Nonlinear and Adaptive Control with Applications provides a detailed treatment of the design of robust adaptive controllers for nonlinear systems with uncertainties. The authors employ a new tool based on the ideas of system immersion and manifold invariance. Departing, in part, from the Lyapunov-function approach of classical control, new algorithms are delivered for the construction of robust asymptotically-stabilising and adaptive control laws for nonlinear systems. The methods proposed lead to modular schemes. These algorithms cater for nonlinear systems with both parametric and dynamic uncertainties. This innovative strategy is illustrated with several examples and case studies from real applications: power converters, electrical machines, mechanical systems, autonomous aircraft and computer vision. Researchers working on adaptive and nonlinear control theory or on control applications will find this monograph of interest.

Industry Reviews

From the reviews:

"The authors present a comprehensive description of a new nonlinear and adaptive control synthesis approach ... . It was a pleasure to read the book. ... The main idea of each proposed solution is first clearly described, illustrated by a motivating example and then put into rigorous mathematical theorems and derivations. ... The book is well written. ... I'm sure that this book would be a welcome addition to the library of any researcher and practitioner working on nonlinear control." (Jacek Kabzinski, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2011 j)

"The book Nonlinear and Adaptive Control with Applications ... guides the reader through the development of a collection of tools based on an immersion and invariance (I&I) methodology. ... this book provides a highly readable exposition of the main I&I design concepts. ... This book is a joy to read and is accessible to graduate-level researchers in nonlinear control as well as practitioners with graduate degrees. The tools developed in this book using the I&I methodology are a welcome addition to any nonlinear control toolbox." (Randy Freeman, IEEE Control Systems Magazine, Vol. 31, April, 2011)
