This graduate-level textbook is based on the author's two decades of teaching at Tel-Aviv University and the Technion Israel Institute of Technology, and builds upon the pioneering methodologies developed by H.J. Kelley. Unlike other books on the subject, the text places optimal control theory within a historical perspective. Following the historical introduction are five chapters dealing with theory and five dealing with primarily aerospace applications. The theoretical section follows the calculus of variations approach, while also covering topics such as gradient methods, adjoint analysis, hodograph perspectives, and singular control. Important examples such as Zermelo's navigation problem are addressed throughout the theoretical chapters of the book. The applications section contains case studies in areas such as atmospheric flight, rocket performance, and missile guidance. The cases chosen are those that demonstrate some new computational aspects, are historically important, or are connected to the legacy of H.J. Kelley.To keep the mathematical level at that of graduate students in engineering, rigorous proofs of many important results are not given, while the interested reader is referred to more mathematical sources. Problem sets are also included. 410 0$aAIAA education series. 606 $aAutomatic pilot (Airplanes) 606 $aFlight control 606 $aGuided missiles$xControl systems 615 0$aAutomatic pilot (Airplanes) 615 0$aFlight control. 615 0$aGuided missiles$xControl systems. 676 $a629.132/6 700 $aBen-Asher$b Joseph Z.$f1955-$01872357 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910967130803321 996 $aOptimal control theory with aerospace applications$94481491 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03267nam 22007811c 450 001 9910958255803321 005 20200115203623.0 010 $a9786612875670 010 $a9781441108074 010 $a1441108076 010 $a9781472547224 010 $a1472547225 010 $a9781282875678 010 $a1282875671 010 $a9781441169952 010 $a1441169954 024 7 $a10.5040/9781472547224 035 $a(CKB)2670000000055664 035 $a(EBL)601495 035 $a(OCoLC)676700836 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000424412 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11250115 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000424412 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10471601 035 $a(PQKB)10368959 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC601495 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL601495 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10427147 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL287567 035 $a(OCoLC)893335012 035 $a(OCoLC)729030042 035 $a(UtOrBLW)bpp09255979 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6163321 035 $a(UtOrBLW)BP9781472547224BC 035 $a(Perlego)806410 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000055664 100 $a20140929d2008 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aOf habit $fFelix Ravaisson ; preface by Catherine Malabou ; translation, introduction and commentary by Clare Carlisle and Mark Sinclair 205 $a1st ed. 210 1$aLondon $aNew York $cContinuum $d2008. 215 $a1 online resource (160 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a9781847061973 311 08$a1847061974 311 08$a9781847061980 311 08$a1847061982 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (pages 130-134) and index 327 $aIntroduction -- Of Habit -- Commentary on the text -- Notes -- Bibliography -- Index 330 8 $aFe?lix Ravaisson's seminal philosophical essay, Of Habit, was first published in French in 1838. It traces the origins and development of habit and proposes the principle of habit as the foundation of human nature. This metaphysics of habit steers a path between materialism and idealism in one of the best and most sophisticated treatments of the topic. Ravaisson's work was pivotal in the development of European thought and has had a significant influence on such key thinkers such as Proust, Bergson, Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty, Derrida, and Deleuze. This edition makes this important work available to an English-speaking audience for the first time. Clare Carlisle and Mark Sinclair provide a comprehensive introduction to Ravaisson's life, works, and enduring influence that clearly situates Ravaisson's text within the European philosophical tradition. The translation also includes a thorough commentary on the text that illuminates its arguments and its context 606 $aHabit (Philosophy) 606 $2Philosophy 615 0$aHabit (Philosophy) 676 $a128/.4 700 $aRavaisson$b Felix$f1813-1900,$0390436 702 $aCarlisle$b Clare 702 $aSinclaire$b Mark 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910958255803321 996 $aOf habit$94467472 997 $aUNINA
