✦ Synopsis

This established and authoritative text focuses on the design and analysis of nonlinear control systems. The author considers the latest research results and techniques in this updated and extended edition. Examples are given from mechanical, electrical and aerospace engineering. The approach consists of a rigorous mathematical formulation of control problems and respective methods of solution. The two appendices outline the most important concepts of differential geometry and present some specific findings not often found in other standard works. The book is, therefore, suitable both as a graduate and undergraduate text and as a source for reference.
