Strict-Feedback Nonlinear Systems - Gain Control Design

This book describes the research progress of the control design about strict-feedback nonlinear systems. A novel gain control design method is proposed, which greatly simplifies the construction procedure of controller for strict-feedback nonlinear systems. The control design problem of strict-feedback nonlinear systems is converted into the determination problem of gain parameters or the construction of dynamic gain equations. Therefore, the tedious iterative design procedure is effectively avoided. This book can be used as a reference for researchers in the field of control theory and engineers seeking advanced methods in practical control applications.

Report

"Strict-feedback nonlinear systems remain general enough to cover a wide class of dynamical systems in practical control applications. ... This book is devoted to presenting a systematic description of recent progress in stability and control of strict-feedback nonlinear systems, mainly within the gain control design framework. ... the book may be helpful for some researchers who want to begin the research of strict-feedback nonlinear systems." (Han Sheng Wu, Mathematical Reviews, December, 2023)
"This book is of great interest to researchers in the fields of control theory and applied mathematics, as well as the engineers who search for advanced methodologies for practical control applications." (Mihail Voicu, zbMATH 1519.93004, 2023)
