Robust Nonlinear Control Design by Randy A Freeman

This softcover book summarizes Lyapunov design techniques for nonlinear systems and raises important issues concerning large-signal robustness and performance. The researcher who wishes to enter the field of robust nonlinear control could use this book as a source of new research topics.

"The text is practically self-containedThe authors offer all necessary definitions and give a comprehensive introduction. Only the most basic knowledge of nonlinear analysis and design tools is required, including Lyapunov stability theory and optimal control. The authors also provide a review of set-valued maps for those readers who are not familiar with set-valued analysis. The book is intended for graduate students and researchers in control theory, serving as both a summary of recent results and a source of new research problems. In the opinion of this reviewer the authors do succeed in attaining these objectives."   —Mathematical Reviews
