Nonlinear and Optimal Control Systems

Nonlinear and Optimal Control Systems

Thomas L. Vincent; Walter J. Grantham

John Wiley Sons Inc
1997
sidottu
Nonlinear and Optimal Control Systems offers a self-contained introduction to analysis techniques used in the design of nonlinear and optimal feedback control systems, with a solid emphasis on the fundamental topics of stability, controllability, optimality, and the corresponding geometry. The book develops and presents these key subjects in a unified fashion. An integrated approach is used to develop stability theory, function minimizing feedback controls, optimal controls, and differential game theory.Starting with a background on differential equations, this accessible text examines nonlinear dynamical systems and nonlinear control systems, including basic results in nonlinear parameter optimization and parametric two-player games. Lyapunov stability theory and control system design are discussed in detail, followed by in-depth coverage of the controllability minimum principle and other important controllability concepts. The optimal control (Pontryagin's) minimum principle is developed and then applied to optimal control problems and the design of optimal controllers.Nonlinear and Optimal Control Systems features examples and exercises taken from a wide range of disciplines and contexts—from engineering control designs to biological, economic, and other systems. Numerical algorithms are provided for solving problems in optimization and control, as well as simulation of systems using nonlinear differential equations. Readers may choose to develop their own code from these algorithms or solve problems with the help of commercial software programs.Providing readers with a sturdy foundation in nonlinear and optimal control system design and application, this new resource is a valuable asset to advanced students and professional engineers in many different fields.An integrated approach to the fundamentals of nonlinear and optimal control systems. This self-contained text provides a solid introduction to the analysis techniques used in the design of nonlinear and optimal feedback control systems. Building on thorough coverage of the basic concepts of stability, controllability, and optimality, the book develops highly effective feedback controllers for stability, function minimizing control, optimal control, and two-player differential games.Concepts are illustrated throughout with examples that represent a range of disciplines and design contexts, bridging theory and application for advanced students and practicing engineers in many different fields. The book features: *An accessible introduction to nonlinear system dynamics *Lyapunov stability theory and control system design *Controllability of nonlinear systems, including in-depth treatment of the controllability minimum principle and Pontryagin's minimum principle *Optimal control systems and design using Pontryagin's minimum principle *Differential games and design concepts—qualitative and quantitative games, Isaacs' min-max principle, and more *Numerical algorithms for control, optimization, and simulation of nonlinear dynamical systems

The Face of Decline

The Face of Decline

Thomas L. Dublin; Walter Licht

Cornell University Press
2005
pokkari
The anthracite coal region of Pennsylvania once prospered. Today, very little mining or industry remains, although residents have made valiant efforts to restore the fabric of their communities. In The Face of Decline, the noted historians Thomas Dublin and Walter Licht offer a sweeping history of this area over the course of the twentieth century. Combining business, labor, social, political, and environmental history, Dublin and Licht delve into coal communities to explore grassroots ethnic life and labor activism, economic revitalization, and the varied impact of economic decline across generations of mining families. The Face of Decline also features the responses to economic crisis of organized capital and labor, local business elites, redevelopment agencies, and state and federal governments. Dublin and Licht draw on a remarkable range of sources: oral histories and survey questionnaires; documentary photographs; the records of coal companies, local governments, and industrial development corporations; federal censuses; and community newspapers. The authors examine the impact of enduring economic decline across a wide region but focus especially on a small group of mining communities in the region's Panther Valley, from Jim Thorpe through Lansford to Tamaqua. The authors also place the anthracite region within a broader conceptual framework, comparing anthracite's decline to parallel developments in European coal basins and Appalachia and to deindustrialization in the United States more generally.

An Austro-Libertarian Critique of Public Choice

An Austro-Libertarian Critique of Public Choice

Thomas J. Dilorenzo; Walter E. Block

Ludwig Von Mises Institute
2017
nidottu
"Dilorenzo and Block have rendered an invaluable service to scholars and students interested in Public Choice, Austrian Economics and Liberalism. Their critical analysis of Public Choice from the Austrian perspective is timely and relevant to clarify important misconceptions about both schools of thought that although in some aspects are complementary in many others offer a significantly different and even opposite approach. This is a most welcome book that was very necessary and fills an important vacuum in the literature." - Jes s Huerta de Soto"I congratulate DiLorenzo and Block for writing this important and courageous book chastising Public Choice. Austro-Libertarianism and Public Choice are to some degree complements; both veer in the direction of support for private property, fee enterprise and capitalism, and against government involvement in the economy. But they are also substitutes, in that the former is a consistent underpinning of the free marketplace, where the latter is not." - Han-Hermann Hoppe

The New Genetic Medicine

The New Genetic Medicine

Thomas A. Shannon; James J. Walter

Sheed Ward,U.S.
2003
sidottu
Since the 1970s, the interrelated areas of medical genetics and biotechnology have developed dramatically and afforded increased control over the design of living organisms. From the very beginning, controversies over these techniques and their applications to plants, animals, and humans have raged in many disciplines—including science, philosophy, ethics, and religion. This book brings together the seminal essays of two leading Catholic moral theologians—Thomas Shannon and James Walter—in an effort to identify the key ethical and theological questions raised by the new genetic medicine. What is unique about this book is that it specifically and directly brings modern genetics and the Roman Catholic theological and ethical tradition into dialogue. While the authors argue that the Catholic tradition has much to offer in putting this current scientific revolution into perspective, they well understand the need to avoid merely repeating the tradition in favor of bringing the best of the tradition to bear on the precise questions posed by modern genetic technology.

Kohlhammer
2014
nidottu
English summary: This teaching and textbook describes the biblical writings, first by content and structure, and then follows their process of coming into being back to the respective reason for their origin. The framework for this is the canon of the Hebrew Bible, which is defined in the introductory section by the Greek and Christian Bible and the so-called Apocrypha. The four parts of the volume are introduced by overview chapters: the Pentateuch as a whole, the Deuteronomistic historical work, the phenomenon of prophecy and Hebrew poetry. The author also appropriately discusses the progress and current state of research. Comprehensive bibliographies characterise the entire work. Anyone wishing to intensively examine the Old Testament and its origins will obtain sound information here. German description: Dieses Lehr- und Studienbuch beschreibt die biblischen Schriften zunachst nach Inhalt und Aufbau und verfolgt dann ihren Werdeprozess zuruck bis zum jeweiligen Entstehungsgrund. Den Rahmen gibt der Kanon der hebraischen Bibel vor, der im Einleitungsteil von der griechischen bzw. christlichen Bibel und den sog. Apokryphen abgegrenzt wird. Die vier Kanonteile werden durch Uberblickskapitel eroffnet: der Pentateuch als ganzer, das deuteronomistische Geschichtswerk, das Phanomen der Prophetie, die hebraische Poesie. Gang und Stand der Forschung kommen angemessen zur Geltung. Umfassende Bibliographien durchziehen das Werk. Wer sich intensiv mit dem Alten Testament und seiner Entstehung befassen will, erhalt hier fundierte Information.
