From the supplier: Less than half of the school districts responding to a 1991 survey used CD-ROM drives; that figure increased to 73 percent in 1993 and is still growing. Over 40 percent of all US public schools have videodisc players and about 71,000 players are expected to be purchased by educators in 1994. New videodisc players offer increased flexibility in the types of discs supported. Several self-contained multimedia players that are suitable for educational use are now available, including the Sony Data Discman electronic book player. More than 100 titles are already available for the Discman, including programs on how to write term papers and reports, the Oxford Dictionary & Thesaurus, and Monarch Notes. Recordable CD drives (CD-R) offer educators the opportunity to develop their own CDs. A buyers guide lists vendors of VCRs, CD-i systems, Videodisc players and CD-ROM drives.

Product Description

The underlying theory on which much modern robust and nonlinear control is based can be difficult for both students and industrial practitioners to grasp. In particular, certain mathematical aspects of advanced control theory can be problematic for students coming from a standard engineering background. The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) sponsored Summer School which was held in Leicester UK in September 2006 attempted to "fill in the gap" in students’ appreciation of the theory relevant to several important areas of control. Mathematical Methods for Robust and Nonlinear Control is a collection of lecture notes which were presented at that workshop by a group of experts in advanced control engineering of international origins and consists, broadly, of two parts.

The first ten chapters are devoted to the mathematical theory behind several areas of robust and nonlinear control and are aimed at introducing fundamental concepts to the reader. The last six chapters contain detailed case studies which aim to demonstrate the use and effectiveness of these modern techniques in real engineering applications. It is hoped that this book will provide a useful introduction for students of many of the more common robust and nonlinear control techniques as well as serving as a valuable reference for the more adept practitioner.
