The Fifth IFIP Working Conference on Stochastic Differential Systems continues the traditional line of previous conferences in Kyoto (1976), Vilnjus (1978), Visegrad (1980), and Marseille-Luminy (1984) and focuses on topics of present research in the field of stochastic differential systems. Particular emphasis is laid on infinite-dimensional stochastic problems and random fields, especially on stochastic partial differential equations. The volume includes contributions to the study of stochastic equations and diffusion and their approximation, large deviations and stability of perturbed...

This volume comprises the Proceedings of the IFIP 7/2 Conference on Control Problems for Systems Described by Partial Differential Equations and Applications held at the University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida in February 1987. The papers presented in this volume encompass several main directions of current research in the area including optimal control for variational inequalities, free boundary value problems, shape optimization, pareto-control, stabilization and controllability of hyperbolic equations, control problems for large space flexible structures, identification and estimation...

The theme of this monograph is the adaptive control of systems in a stochastic environment and, more precisely, the study of the tracking problem for ARMAX SISO stochastic systems with time invariant and time varying parameters. Results of simultaneous tracking and parameter identification are included. The author has aimed to (1) provide a reasonably self-contained and up-to-date exposition of the tracking problem after having properly placed it amongst numerous ideas, approaches, and subproblems related to adaptive control, (2) display computer simulation results and discuss their...

This book is a research monograph describing results obtained by the author and his co-workers of the last two years. It deals with the feedback stabilization of linear time invariant systems containing a real parameter vector subject to perturbation. The results described include methods for designing low order regulators for the nominal plant, the calculation of stability regions and stability margins in the parameter space, and procedures to design stabilizing controllers that tolerate prescribed ranges of parameter perturbations. Each of these problems is treated in the transfer function...

This volume comprises the proceedings of the "3rd International Conference on Distributed Parameter Systems" held at the Chorherrenstift Vorau (Styria), July 6-12, 1986. The aim of the meeting was to stimulate exchange of information between scientists working in the field of distributed parameter systems. The papers included in the proceedings present recent results and most of them include a survey on the background of the problem. Main topics considered in these papers are boundary control for hyperbolic systems, linear-quadratic control problems, robustness, stabilization, visco-elastic...

From the preface: "The book is written for scientists, practicing engineers and students interested in the analysis of system dynamics. Experience has shown that the volume is of special value to analysts and designers of control systems in many disciplines of engineering. The first two chapters can be of great use as a textbook for subjects from the field of dynamics and control systems in university undergraduate courses, while the third chapter is intended for more detailed graduate study. Having this in mind, every section of the book ends in many solved numerical examples. This...

In this monograph the local disturbance decoupling problem with stability istreated for nonlinear systems. This problem consists in finding a (dynamic) state feedback for a given control system with two kinds of inputs, viz. controlled inputs and (uncontrolled) disturbances such that after application of this feedback the outputs are not influenced by the disturbances and the resulting internal dynamics are locally exponentially stable. In case only static state feedback is allowed two essentially different solutions are obtained, viz. a fundamental one and a more problem-oriented one. Both...
