Adaptive Control Tutorial: 11 (Advances in Design and Control, Series Number 11) - Softcover

Designed to meet the needs of a wide audience without sacrificing mathematical depth and rigour, Adaptive Control Tutorial presents the design, analysis, and application of a wide variety of algorithms that can be used to manage dynamical systems with unknown parameters. Its tutorial-style presentation of the fundamental techniques and algorithms in adaptive control make it suitable as a textbook. Adaptive Control Tutorial is designed to serve the needs of three distinct groups of readers: engineers and students interested in learning how to design, simulate, and implement parameter estimators and adaptive control schemes; graduate students who also want to understand the analysis of simple schemes and get an idea of the steps involved in more complex proofs; and advanced students and researchers who want to study and understand the details of long and technical proofs with an eye toward pursuing research in adaptive control or related topics.

This book will be useful to masters- and Ph.D.-level students as well as electrical, mechanical, and aerospace engineers and applied mathematicians.
