Chapter 1: Regularly and singularly perturbed systems (512k)

This unique book presents an analytical uniform design methodology of continuous-time or discrete-time nonlinear control system design which guarantees desired transient performances in the presence of plant parameter variations and unknown external disturbances. All results are illustrated with numerical simulations, their practical importance is highlighted, and they may be used for real-time control system design in robotics, mechatronics, chemical reactors, electrical and electro-mechanical systems as well as aircraft control systems. The book is easy reading and is suitable for teaching.

A Student Solutions Manual along with a set of Matlab-Simulink files can be downloaded from http://ac.cs.nstu.ru/~yurkev/books.html.
