Lagrangian and Hamiltonian Methods in Nonlinear Control 2003: Workshop (IPV - IFAC Proceedings Volume) - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

This is the second of a series of IFAC Workshops initiated in 2000. The first one chaired and organized by Profs. N. Leonard and R. Ortega, was held in Princeton in March 2000. This proceedings volume looks at the role-played by Lagrangian and Hamiltonian methods in disciplines such as classical mechanics, quantum mechanics, fluid dynamics, electrodynamics, celestial mechanics and how such methods can be practically applied in the control community.

*Presents and illustrates new approaches to nonlinear control that exploit the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian structure of the system to be controlled
*Highlights the important role of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian Structures as design methods
