Stabilization and Regulation of Nonlinear Systems
The topics of control engineering and signal processing continue to flourish and
develop. In common with general scientific investigation, new ideas, concepts, and
interpretations emerge quite spontaneously and these are then discussed, used,
discarded, or subsumed into the prevailing subject paradigm. Sometimes, these
innovative concepts coalesce into a new subdiscipline within the broad subject
tapestry of control and signal processing. This preliminary battle between old and
new usually takes place at conferences, through the Internet and in the journals of
the discipline. After a little more maturity has been acquired by the new concepts
then archival publication as a scientific or engineering monograph may occur.
A new concept in control and signal processing is known to have arrived when
sufficient material has evolved for the topic to be taught as a specialized tutorial
workshop or as a course to undergraduate, graduate, or industrial engineers.
Advanced Textbooks in Control and Signal Processing are designed as a vehicle
for the systematic presentation of course material for both popular and innovative
topics in the discipline. It is hoped that prospective authors will welcome the
opportunity to publish a structured and systematic presentation of some of the
newer emerging control and signal processing technologies in the textbook series.
The Editors of Advanced Textbooks in Control and Signal Processing are
aiming for the series to develop as a library of textbooks of high quality that cover
some fundamental topics in the discipline but also include some coherent
and systematic presentations of advanced topics that are gaining textbook status.
A thorough and systematic presentation of the methods of nonlinear control
has been one sought-after entry that has been missing from the series until now.
The Editors are therefore understandably pleased to welcome this control textbook
Stabilization and Regulation of Nonlinear Systems: A Robust and Adaptive
Approach by authors Zhiyong Chen and Jie Huang into the series.
