L2 - Gain and Passivity Techniques in Nonlinear Control

L2 - Gain and Passivity Techniques in Nonlinear Control

Arjan van der Schaft

Springer London Ltd
1999
sidottu
With respect to the first edition as Volume 218 in the Lecture Notes in Con­ trol and Information Sciences series the basic idea of the second edition has remained the same: to provide a compact presentation of some basic ideas in the classical theory of input-output and closed-loop stability, together with a choice of contributions to the recent theory of nonlinear robust and 1foo control and passivity-based control. Nevertheless, some parts of the book have been thoroughly revised and/or expanded, in order to have a more balanced presen­ tation of the theory and to include some of the new developments which have been taken place since the appearance of the first edition. I soon realized, how­ ever, that it is not possible to give a broad exposition of the existing literature in this area without affecting the spirit of the book, which is precisely aimed at a compact presentation. So as a result the second edition still reflects very much my personal taste and research interests. I trust that others will write books emphasizing different aspects. Major changes with respect to the first edition are the following: • A new section has been added in Chapter 2 relating L2-gain and passivity via scattering, emphasizing a coordinate-free, geometric, treatment. • The section on stability in Chapter 3 has been thoroughly expanded, also incorporating some recent results presented in [182J.

An Introduction to Hybrid Dynamical Systems

An Introduction to Hybrid Dynamical Systems

Arjan J. van der Schaft; Hans Schumacher

Springer London Ltd
1999
nidottu
This book is about dynamical systems that are "hybrid" in the sense that they contain both continuous and discrete state variables. Recently there has been increased research interest in the study of the interaction between discrete and continuous dynamics. The present volume provides a first attempt in book form to bring together concepts and methods dealing with hybrid systems from various areas, and to look at these from a unified perspective.The authors have chosen a mode of exposition that is largely based on illustrative examples rather than on the abstract theorem-proof format because the systematic study of hybrid systems is still in its infancy. The examples are taken from many different application areas, ranging from power converters to communication protocols and from chaos to mathematical finance.Subjects covered include the following: definition of hybrid systems; description formats; existence and uniqueness of solutions; special subclasses (variable-structure systems, complementarity systems); reachability and verification; stability and stabilizability; control design methods. The book will be of interest to scientists from a wide range of disciplines including: computer science, control theory, dynamical system theory, systems modeling and simulation, and operations research.

Such a moment of "awakening" changes everything, and unleashes a wellspring of energy, humor and love.

Awakening Coaching is an innovative and brilliant new way of approaching spiritual awakening, stripping our deepest and most profound longing back to its most essential roots. This is an extremely practical book, drawing upon dozens of real life examples from coaches and clients, in which the author explains to you a simple and repeatable methodology to support others in living their fullest potential in every possible dimension of themselves.

International Contracting: Contract Management In Complex Construction Projects

International Contracting: Contract Management In Complex Construction Projects

Arjan Van Weele; John Van Der Puil

Imperial College Press
2013
sidottu
This book, about international contracting and contract management, is written from the angle of the contractor and discussed from an international perspective. It comments on real-life cases, taken from various kinds of projects: infrastructural works (roads, bridges, tunnels, rail roads), wind- and sunfarms, oil and gas installations, such as platforms, pipe lines, power generating works, and large buildings.The book is structured around the contracting cycle. Chapters include dealing with the role of the contractor in international contracting, the tender process, landing and negotiating the contract, types of contract, problems that may occur during project execution, project delivery, and handling guarantee claims.Written primarily for business practitioners operating in the international contracting industry, the title assumes that the reader will have a basic understanding and knowledge of theories related to project management, construction engineering, business law and economics.Though not an academic book, due to its unique blend of practitioners' insight and academic theory, it can be taught on Masters courses. As most engineers are going to deal with contracts, this book is specifically recommended for engineering programs at both graduate and postgraduate levels. Lawyers will find the book useful in helping them to understand the business context in which their customers and/or colleagues work.

Chasing More and Finding Enough

Chasing More and Finding Enough

Arjuna Ishaya

FISHER KING PUBLISHING
2021
pokkari
Have you been chasing more and not finding enough, anywhere?No matter how hard we chase, we never seem to find enough. Maybe there's a nagging sense that there's something more to life. Maybe it's burnout, overwhelm, self-doubt, dissatisfaction and disconnection. Our problem, in many ways, is that we have so much and do so much but it rarely brings us anything lasting.This book contains the answer: How to find balance and have it all, including the so often missing piece of the puzzle - a deeply satisfying inner connection that brings substance, meaning and direction; where chaos, uncertainty and change can't rock your ship.It's about contentment but not complacency; courage not control; passion not attachment; flow and ease not stress, struggle and suffering. You gain all that is good when you make Being the foundation of everything you do."Arjuna's passion for helping everyone live a life less ordinary shines through this book. It is a siren call to all those wishing to thrive in life, rather than merely survive." - Dr Fiona Turnbull, Clinical Psychologist

“This country needs many more books like this one.”—Arundhati Roy, author of Walking with the Comrades and The God of Small Things A powerful eyewitness account of life in an Indian prison shows how abolition is necessary to achieve a democratic transformation of society. In May 2007, Arun Ferreira, a democratic rights activist, was picked up at a railway station in western India, detained by the court, and condemned to prison for an expanding list of crimes: criminal conspiracy, murder, possession of arms, and rioting, among others added during his detention. In one of the most notorious prisons in India, Arun Ferreira was constantly abused and tortured. Over the next several years, each of the ten cases slapped against him fell apart. At long last, Ferreira was acquitted of all charges. As he exited the prison, moments away from freedom, he was rearrested by plainclothes police. He never got to glimpse his family waiting for him just outside the prison gates. In stark and riveting detail, Ferreira recounts the horrors he faced in prison—torture, beatings, the general air of hopelessness—and the small consolations that kept hope alive—strikes and solidarity among inmates. His memoir is a timely reminder that across the globe policing and incarceration are institutions in desperate need of being dismantled.

Louise Fishman

Louise Fishman

Arun D'Souza

Cheim Read
2018
sidottu
This publication brings together a characteristically wide-ranging group of new works by painter Louise Fishman (born 1939). The paintings in this volume all appear as spontaneous improvisations upon an implied grid, but vary widely in scale (from 4 x 6 inches to 96 inches wide) and method. Paint is troweled, squeezed from the tube, diluted into a wash, pressed on with a sheet of paper and pulled off. The mediums include oil, watercolor, egg tempera, colored pencil, ink and graphite. The varied nature of Fishman’s work can be explained by a simple statement from the artist herself: “My intention, always, was to not repeat a painting, was to not repeat aspects of paintings. My intention in painting is to keep discovering and to keep changing.”

Homeland Security

Homeland Security

Arun Kundnani; Mizue Aizeki

Common Notions
2024
pokkari
This is the century of homeland security. The federal government created a monster. They said it would keep us safe. The monster hatched in November 2002. It was named the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). An appetite for control and conquest was in its DNA. Its early influences, in the years after 9/11, were paranoia and vengeance. The DHS is the only new department the United States has spawned in this century. With its birth, issues that were previously seen as separate—immigration control, policing, and counter-terrorism—were brought into a single, sprawling entity. Twenty-two preexisting agencies were absorbed into what became the nation’s third largest government department. Today it has a budget of over $100 billion and employs a quarter of a million people. Every danger is now conceived of as a threat to “homeland security,” and as the 9/11 Commission said in 2003, “the American homeland is the planet.”
