Statistical control -- pt. 2. Algebraic systems theory -- pt. 3. Dynamic systems characteristics -- pt. 4. Engineering education.This volume—dedicated to Michael K. Sain on the occasion of his seventieth birthday—is a collection of chapters covering recent advances in stochastic optimal control theory and algebraic systems theory. Written by experts in their respective fields, the chapters are thematically organized into four parts: * Part I focuses on statistical control theory, where the cost function is viewed as a random variable and performance is shaped through cost cumulants. In this respect, statistical control generalizes linear-quadratic-Gaussian and H-infinity control. * Part II addresses algebraic systems theory, reviewing the use of algebraic systems over semirings, modules of zeros for linear multivariable systems, and zeros in linear time-delay systems. * Part III discusses advances in dynamical systems characteristics. The chapters focus on the stability of a discontinuous dynamical system, approximate decentralized fixed modes, direct optimal adaptive control, and stability of nonlinear systems with limited information. * Part IV covers engineering education and includes a unique chapter on theology and engineering, one of Sain's latest research interests. The book will be a useful reference for researchers and graduate students in systems and control, algebraic systems theory, and applied mathematics. Requiring only knowledge of undergraduate-level control and systems theory, the work may be used as a supplementary textbook in a graduate course on optimal control or algebraic systems theory.Systems & control.Stochastic control theoryNonlinear control theorySystem analysisDifferentiable dynamical systemsStochastic control theory.Nonlinear control theory.System analysis.Differentiable dynamical systems.515.642519.2Won Chang-Hee1471150Schrader Cheryl B1471151Michel Anthony N26206Sain Michael K58392MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910781166403321Advances in statistical control, algebraic systems theory, and dynamic systems characteristics3683322UNINA
