Sliding Mode Control of Uncertain Parameter-Switching Hybrid Systems

Series Preface

Electromechanical systems permeate the engineering and technology fields in aerospace, automotive, mechanical, biomedical, civil/structural, electrical, environmental, and industrial systems. The Wiley Book Series on dynamics and control of electromechanical systems will cover a broad range of engineering and technology within these fields. As demand increases for innovation in these areas, feedback control of these systems is becoming essential for increased productivity, precision operation, load mitigation, and safe operation. Furthermore, new applications in these areas require a reevaluation of existing control methodologies to meet evolving technological requirements, for example the distributed control of energy systems. The basics of distributed control systems are well documented in several textbooks, but the nuances of its use for future applications in the evolving area of energy system applications, such as wind turbines and wind farm operations, solar energy systems, smart grids, and the generation, storage and distribution of energy, require an amelioration of existing distributed control theory to specific energy system needs. The book series serves two main purposes: 1) a delineation and explication of theoretical advancements in electromechanical system dynamics and control, and 2) a presentation of application-driven technologies in evolving electromechanical systems.

This book series will embrace the full spectrum of dynamics and control of ...
