Cooperative Control of Nonlinear Networked Systems
is concerned with the distributed cooperative control of multiple
networked nonlinear systems in the presence of unknown non-parametric
uncertainties and non-vanishing disturbances under certain communication
conditions. It covers stability analysis tools and distributed control
methods for analyzing and synthesizing nonlinear networked systems. The
book presents various solutions to cooperative control problems of
multiple networked nonlinear systems on graphs.
The book includes
various examples with segments of MATLAB® codes for readers to verify,
validate, and replicate the results. The authors present a series of new
control results for nonlinear networked systems subject to both
non-parametric and non-vanishing uncertainties, including the
cooperative uniformly ultimately bounded (CUUB) result, finite-time
stability result, and finite-time cooperative uniformly ultimately
bounded (FT-CUUB) result. With some mathematical tools, such as
algebraic graph theory and certain aspects of matrix analysis theory
introduced by the authors, the readers can obtain a deeper understanding
of the roles of matrix operators as mathematical machinery for
cooperative control design for multi-agent systems.
Cooperative Control of Nonlinear Networked Systems
is a valuable source of information for researchers and engineers in
cooperative adaptive control, as its technical contents are presented
with examples in full analytical and numerical detail, and graphically
illustrated for easy-to-understand results. Scientists in research
institutes and academics in universities working on nonlinear systems,
adaptive control and distributed control will find the book of interest,
as it contains multi-disciplinary problems and covers different areas
of research.
