Field theory is a more or less coherent approach in the social sciences whose essence is
the explanation of regularities in individual action by recourse to position vis-à-vis others …

This book presents methods to study the controllability and the stabilization of nonlinear
control systems in finite and infinite dimensions. The emphasis is put on specific phenomena …

The combination of backstepping-based state-feedback control and flatness-based
trajectory planning and feedforward control is considered for the design of an exponentially …

We detail in this article the development of a delay-robust stabilizing state feedback control
law for an underactuated network of two subsystems of heterodirectional linear first-order …

The boundary controllability of a class of one-dimensional degenerate equations is studied
in this paper. The novelty of this work is that the control acts through the part of the boundary …

In this article, we propose control solutions to suppress undesirable torsional oscillations of
the drill string in oil well drilling systems. Two feedback control laws are derived from Partial …

We propose a controller that robustly stabilizes an interconnection of Ordinary Differential
Equations with two hyperbolic linear Partial Differential Equations. The proposed design …

This paper is concerned with the output regulation problem for coupled wave–ODE systems
subject to spatially-varying coefficients. This problem is traced back to the regulator design …

A continuous space‐time Galerkin method is newly proposed for the numerical solution of
inverse dynamics problems. The proposed space‐time finite element method is combined …

We consider the problems of trajectory generation and tracking for general 2× 2 systems of
first-order linear hyperbolic PDEs with anti-collocated boundary input and output. We solve …
