About this title

Synopsis

Nonlinear and Hybrid Systems in Automotive Control will enable researchers, control engineers and automotive engineers to understand the engine and whole-Vehicle models necessary for control. A new generation of control strategies has become necessary because of the increasingly rigorous requirements of vehicle and engine control systems for accuracy, ride comfort, safety, complexity, functionality and emisssion levels. In contrast with earlier systems, these new control systems are based on dynamic physical models and the principles of advanced nonlinear control. The contributors to this work come from both academic and industrial backgrounds and the subjects they cover include: Suspension Control Modelling of driver position and behavior Anti-lock braking systems and optimal braking control Stability analysis of hybrid systems Hamilton formulation of bond graphs Approximation of maximal controlled safe sets for hybrid systems. This book should be of use to academic researchers and gratitude students as well as to engineers in the automotive industry.

Review

From the reviews:

"The book presents an overview of systems and control research issues in the application context of automotive control (AE). ... This book is an excellent up-to-date reference presenting a variety of original applications of system and control theory in automotive control. It presents also new effort to solve theoretical problems arising from problems in AE. ... The book is intended for researchers, practitioners, and advanced postgraduate students working in the areas of control engineering, mechanical engineering and applied mathematics ... ."
