| DESCRIPTION | This course introduces methods for analysis and control design of nonlinear systems, which have a wide range of engineering applications including transportation, robotics, biology, energy, and manufacturing systems. The course includes: 1) Mathematical models of nonlinear systems, and fundamental differences between the behavior of linear and nonlinear systems, equilibrium, limit cycles and general invariant sets. 2) Phase plane analysis, Lyapunov stability, Input-to-state stability, Input-output stability, and approximation methods. 3) Feedback linearization and nonlinear control design tools, including Lyapunov-based control and Backstepping. From learning the nonlinear phenomena to understanding the mathematical properties and then analyzing system behaviors, students will be able to grasp the fundamental concepts and advanced tools that are useful in the analysis of nonlinear systems. The control design tools for nonlinear systems from feedback linearization to advanced backstepping control are covered in this course. Students will be proficient in skills of independently assessing the advantages and disadvantages of different nonlinear methods, make a qualified choice of method for analysis and design of nonlinear control systems that arise from various research areas. |
