In addition to detailed theoretical analyses of ZG controllers, the book presents a wealth of computer simulations to demonstrate the feasibility and efficacy of the controllers discussed (as well as the method itself). More importantly, the superiority of ZG controllers in overcoming the division-by-zero (DBZ) problem is also illustrated. Given its scope and format, the book is well suited for undergraduate and graduate students, as well as academic and industrial researchers in the fields of neural dynamics/neural networks, nonlinear control, computer mathematics, time-varying problem solving, modeling and simulation, analog hardware, and robotics. 606 $aAutomatic control 606 $aNonlinear systems 615 0$aAutomatic control. 615 0$aNonlinear systems. 676 $a629.8 700 $aZhang$b Yunong$f1973-$0886029 702 $aQiu$b Binbin 702 $aLi$b Xiaodong 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996464394603316 996 $aZhang-gradient control$92814876 997 $aUNISA
