Opis

Hybrid and Networked Dynamical Systems treats a class of systems that is ubiquitous in everyday life. From energy grids to fleets of robots or vehicles to social networks to biological networks, the same scenario arises: dynamical units interact locally through a connection graph to achieve a global task. The book shows how analysis and design tools can be adapted for control applications that combine the effects of network-induced interactions and hybrid dynamics with complex results.
Following a scene-setting introduction, the remaining 12 chapters of the book are divided into three parts and provide a unique opportunity to describe the big picture that is the culmination of years of recent research activity. The contributing authors expand on their ideas at greater length than is possible in an archival research paper and use in-depth examples to illustrate their theoretical work.
The widespread importance of hybrid and networked systems means that the book is of significant interest to academic researchers working in applied mathematics, control, and electrical, mechanical and chemical engineering and to their industrial counterparts.
