Add to basketDruck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Unlike the conventional research for the general theory of stability, this mono graph deals with problems on stability and stabilization of dynamic systems with respect not to all but just to a given part of the variables characterizing these systems. Such problems are often referred to as the problems of partial stability (stabilization). They naturally arise in applications either from the requirement of proper performance of a system or in assessing system capa bility. In addition, a lot of actual (or desired) phenomena can be formulated in terms of these problems and be analyzed with these problems taken as the basis. The following multiaspect phenomena and problems can be indicated: - 'Lotka-Volterra ecological principle of extinction;' - focusing and acceleration of particles in electromagnetic fields; - 'drift' of the gyroscope axis; - stabilization of a spacecraft by specially arranged relative motion of rotors connected to it. Also very effective is the approach to the problem of stability (stabilization) with respect to all the variables based on preliminary analysis of partial sta bility (stabilization). A. M. Lyapunov, the founder of the modern theory of stability, was the first to formulate the problem of partial stability. Later, works by V. V. Rumyan tsev drew the attention of many mathematicians and mechanicians around the world to this problem, which resulted in its being intensively worked out. The method of Lyapunov functions became the key investigative method which turned out to be very effective in analyzing both theoretic and applied problems.

"Lucid and very well written.... Very suitable for graduate students of mathematics and engineering, in optimal control theory, as well as research professionals in the area. The book has many worked examples taken entirely from aerospace applications. It would thus also appeal to design engineers who work in aerospace or complex-manufacturing operations provided they have the willingness to accept rigorous mathematical arguments or maturity in functional analysis and differential equations. With nearly 400 references, this book provides a rich resource for further study and should be in the library of every graduate college mathematics and engineering department and every industrial R&D laboratory with interests in the control area." ―Applied Mechanics Reviews
"This book deals with problems on stability and stabilization of dynamical systems with respect to a given part of the variables characterizing these systems. The theory goes back to Lyapunov, who was the first to formulate these kinds of problems. Here the author develops a new method based on transformation of original systems in some more convenient systems.... A number of problems of controlling the angular motion of an asymmetric solid in various formulations as well as problems of stabilizing an artificial satellite in circular and geostationary orbits are solved, as an illustration of the efficiency of the method proposed. The monograph is based mainly on the author’s results published in the last two decades. It is a valuable reference for advanced graduates and specialists in applied mathematics and engineering engaged in research involving differential equations, differential games, stability and control." ―Applications of Mathematics
"This monograph gives a detailed and comprehensive study of the stability and stabilisation of dynamical systems with respect to part of the variables.... The monograph begins with an excellent Introduction. This places the topic of the monograph clearly in the historical development of the partial stability of dynamical systems, [and] includes a detailed account of the relevant literature and makes use of the monograph's comprehensive bibliography. Several situations are then described which help motivate and justify the need for a study of partial stability/stabilisation.
This is a well-written book. At well over 400 pages there is much to discover and digest. There are numerous useful examples, both of a textbook style, aimed to clarify a definition or detail in a proof, and those of a more significant application-based style. I found the applications to the control of geo-stationary orbit of satellites most interesting and illuminating. Each chapter is clearly introduced and each concludes with an extensive and impressive overview of the literature." ―UK Nonlinear News

Cancellation
Withdrawal
You have the right to revoke this contract within fourteen days without giving reasons.
The revocation period is fourteen days from the day,
on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, has taken possession of the goods, provided that you have ordered one or more goods within the framework of a uniform order and these are or will be delivered uniformly;
on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, has taken possession of the last goods, provided that you have ordered several goods within the framework of a single order and these are delivered separately;
on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, has taken possession of the last partial shipment or the last piece, provided that you have ordered goods that are delivered in several partial shipments or pieces;
In order to exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (AHA-BUCH GmbH, Garlebsen 48, 37574 Einbeck, telephone number: 05563 9996039, fax number: 05563 9995974, e-mail address: service@aha-buch.de) of your decision to revoke this contract by means of a clear declaration (e.B. a letter sent by post, fax or e-mail). You can use the attached model withdrawal form, but this is not mandatory.
To comply with the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification of the exercise of the right of revocation before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of revocation
If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse you all payments that we have received from you, including delivery costs (with the exception of the additional costs resulting from the fact that you have chosen a different type of delivery than the cheapest standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within fourteen days from the day on which we received the notification of your revocation of this contract.
