Product Description
This multi-authored volume presents selected papers from the Eighth Workshop on Dynamics and Control. Many of the papers represent significant advances in this area of research, and cover the development of control methods, including the control of dynamical systems subject to mixed constraints on both the control and state variables, and the development of a control design method for flexible manipulators with mismatched uncertainties. Advances in dynamic systems are presented, particularly in game-theoretic approaches and also the applications of dynamic systems methodology to social and environmental problems, for example, the concept of virtual biospheres in modeling climate change in terms of dynamical systems.

A Book that Shows the State-of-the-Art January 7, 2001
84 out of 84 found this review helpful
This book contains a well-organized series of articles by individuals who have international renown for their reseach in the field of dynamics and control. Several of the articles represent substantial progress in our knowledge of uncertain systems, nonlinear systems and their applications to understanding physical and societal problems of topical interest. The book is divided into 3 section, of which I found the last one, on applications, fascinating. These latter papers show that mathematical analysis can indeed shed considerable light on our understanding of society and the environment.
