This course is an introduction to the foundations of nonlinear control theory, with an emphasis on feedback stabilization. As needed, topics from differential geometry and other mathematical ...

Metasurfaces, and in particular those containing plasmonic-based metallic elements, constitute an attractive set of materials with a potential for replacing standard bulky optical elements. In recent ...

Author Dr. R. Russell Rhinehart discusses his new book, Nonlinear Model-Based Control: Using First-Principles Models in Process Control, and explains why nonlinear first-principles models should be ...

Sometimes, it’s easy for a computer to predict the future. Simple phenomena, such as how sap flows down a tree trunk, are straightforward and can be captured in a few lines of code using what ...

Differential equations and systems analysis. Undergraduate controls and/or signal processing course would satisfy this requirement. A graduate-level systems course is also helpful, but not necessary.

You can use a SOLVE statement to solve the nonlinear equation system for some variables when the values of other variables are given. Consider the demand and supply model shown in the preceding ...
