Closed-loop turbulence control is a critical enabler of aerodynamic drag reduction, lift
increase, mixing enhancement, and noise reduction. Current and future applications have …

Control can enable high-bandwidth nanopositioning needed to increase the operating
speed of scanning probe microscopes (SPMs). High-speed SPMs can substantially impact …

This paper deals with the design of an H∞ tracking controller for nonlinear continuous-time
systems with completely unknown dynamics. A general bounded L 2-gain tracking problem …

The problem of greenhouse gas (particularly carbon dioxide) release during power
generation in fixed and mobile systems is widely acknowledged. Fuel cells are …

Illustrating the power, simplicity, and generality of the concept of flatness, this reference
explains how to identify, utilize, and apply flatness in system planning and design. The book …

In this article we analyzed and designed air flow controllers that protect the fuel cell (FC)
stack from oxygen starvation during step changes of current demand. The steady-state …

In this paper, we aim to solve the infinite-time optimal tracking control problem for a class of
discrete-time nonlinear systems using the greedy heuristic dynamic programming (HDP) …

Fuel cell systems offer clean and efficient energy production and are currently under
intensive development by several manufacturers for both stationary and mobile applications …

A typical plant control system will be subject to the undesirable influence of exogenous
commands and disturbances. In order to track and reject these Professor Isidori and his co …

Sliding mode control algorithms for buck and boost power converters are surveyed in the
paper. Current and voltage controls are demonstrated for the both cases. It is shown, that …
