Robust Control Engineering

<p>This book thoroughly covers the fundamentals of the QFT robust control as well as practical control solutions for unstable time-delay non-minimum phase or distributed parameter systems plants with large model uncertainty high-performance specifications nonlinear components multi-input multi-output characteristics or asymmetric topologies. The reader will discover practical applications through a collection of fifty successful real world case studies and projects in which the author has been involved during the last twenty-five years including commercial wind turbines wastewater treatment plants power systems satellites with flexible appendages spacecraft large radio telescopes and industrial manufacturing systems. Furthermore the book presents problems and projects with the popular QFT Control Toolbox (QFTCT) for MATLAB which was developed by the author.</p>
