Neuware - Nonlinear and Optimal Control Systems offers a self-contained introduction to analysis techniques used in the design of nonlinear and optimal feedback control systems, with a solid emphasis on the fundamental topics of stability, controllability, optimality, and the corresponding geometry. The book develops and presents these key subjects in a unified fashion. An integrated approach is used to develop stability theory, function minimizing feedback controls, optimal controls, and differential game theory.Starting with a background on differential equations, this accessible text examines nonlinear dynamical systems and nonlinear control systems, including basic results in nonlinear parameter optimization and parametric two-player games. Lyapunov stability theory and control system design are discussed in detail, followed by in-depth coverage of the controllability minimum principle and other important controllability concepts. The optimal control (Pontryagin's) minimum principle is developed and then applied to optimal control problems and the design of optimal controllers.Nonlinear and Optimal Control Systems features examples and exercises taken from a wide range of disciplines and contexts--from engineering control designs to biological, economic, and other systems. Numerical algorithms are provided for solving problems in optimization and control, as well as simulation of systems using nonlinear differential equations. Readers may choose to develop their own code from these algorithms or solve problems with the help of commercial software programs.Providing readers with a sturdy foundation in nonlinear and optimal control system design and application, this new resource is a valuable asset to advanced students and professional engineers in many different fields.An integrated approach to the fundamentals of nonlinear and optimal control systems. This self-contained text provides a solid introduction to the analysis techniques used in the design of nonlinear and optimal feedback control systems. Building on thorough coverage of the basic concepts of stability, controllability, and optimality, the book develops highly effective feedback controllers for stability, function minimizing control, optimal control, and two-player differential games.Concepts are illustrated throughout with examples that represent a range of disciplines and design contexts, bridging theory and application for advanced students and practicing engineers in many different fields.…

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to AHA-BUCH GmbH, Einbeck, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
