Ebook: Constructive Nonlinear Control

Constructive Nonlinear Control presents a broad repertoire of constructive nonlinear designs not available in other works by widening the class of systems and design tools. Several streams of nonlinear control theory are merged and directed towards a constructive solution of the feedback stabilization problem. Analysis, geometric and asymptotic concepts are assembled as design tools for a wide variety of nonlinear phenomena and structures. Geometry serves as a guide for the construction of design procedures whilst analysis provides the robustness which geometry lacks. New recursive designs remove earlier restrictions on feedback passivation. Recursive Lyapunov designs for feedback, feedforward and interlaced structures result in feedback systems with optimality properties and stability margins. The design-oriented approach will make this work a valuable tool for all those who have an interest in control theory.

Had some significant success in business and in my community. Felt I should do more. Never took a business class or read a business book. In 2003 Allen's book was my first on time management. I had no knowledge on the subject, however this had nothing new at all. His thoughts were all obvious. For my first time I searched Amazon for the right book. From YOUR reviews I selected: [{ASIN:B000LNIG02 How to Get Control of Your Time and Your Life]], by Alan Lakein. He walked me through to decide where I should go and what to do. He took me through human nature. A simple approach with steps that felt natural. It was published in 1973, but it works. The sections I marked I will read again. Over each of the last 7 years I read 70 more books than I normally had time for, work with a volunteer group and do more with my family. Good book for me.
