Semi-Discretization for Time-Delay Systems: Stability and Engineering Applications: 178 (Applied Mathematical Sciences) - Hardcover

From the reviews:

“The goal of this book is to present the semi-discretization method for the stability analysis of linear periodic delay systems. ... The book is very well written and organized. ... is very interesting from both theoretical and applied points of view. ... a good list of references to the relevant literature is included. It is a good source to introduce Ph.D. students to the subject, and also a useful reference book for researchers in many areas where time-delay systems play an important role ... .” (Eduardo Liz, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2012 f)

“This monograph presents a numerical technique, called the semi-discretization method, for the stability analysis of linear time-periodic and time-delay systems. Partial differential equations describing the systems are discretized only along the spatial coordinates while the time coordinate is unchanged. The book is based mostly on the author’s research work over the last 10 years. ... The book is addressed to graduate and PhD students as well to scientists working in the field of mechanical, electrical and chemical engineering, control theory biomechanics etc.” (Tadeusz Kaczorek, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1245, 2012)
