Add to basketThe book presents recent applications and developments in the field of control of industrial systems, covering a wide range of modeling and feedback control using various robust approaches such as fuzzy systems, sliding mode control, and H-infinity.
This book provides insights into theory, applications, and perspectives relevant to the field of robotic systems, exoskeletons, power systems, photovoltaic systems, etc., as well as general methodologies and paradigms around them. Each chapter provides an enriched understanding of a research topic along with a balanced treatment of the relevant theories, methods, or applications. It reports on the latest advances in the field.
This book is a good reference for graduate students, researchers, educators, engineers, and scientists and contains a total of 15 chapters divided into five parts as follows. The first part of this book focuses on the application of fuzzy control to robotic systems and consists of threechapters. The second part of this book proposes the control of lower and upper limb exoskeletons and includes two chapters. The third part is dedicated to the control of power systems and comprises three chapters. The fourth part deals with various approaches to the modeling and control of industrial processes and comprises four chapters. The fifth and final part describes observers and fault-tolerant control systems and comprises five chapters.
