Computation and Control : Volume 3 (Progress in Systems and Control Theory)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The third Conference on Computation and Control was held at Montana State University in Bozeman, Montana from August 5-11, 1992 and this proceedings represents the evolution that the conference has taken since its 1988 and 1990 predecessors. The first conference and proceedings (Volume 1 in Progress in Systems and Control Theory) nurtured a dialogue between researchers in control theory and the area of numerical computation. This cross-fertilization was continued with the 1990 conference and proceedings (Volume 11 in Progress and Control Theory) while forecasting the theme for this conference.
The present volume contains a collection of papers addressing issues ranging from noise abatement via smart material technology, robotic vision, and parameter identification to feedback design challenges in fluid control and other areas of topical interest. The area of feedback design challenges in fluid control spawns computational challenges in the form of Burgers' equation which is addressed both with standard numerical methods as well as new computational procedures. Applications which involve inverse problems include material parameter estimation and sampling in observability. Whether motivated by the plant or arising as the distributed system in the design of a feedback compensator for problems in nonlinear control, the theme of this conference placed an emphasis on the use of partial differential equations in control theory. This volume represents the work of experts in both computation and control who have focused state of the art techniques in both fields on the solution of problems involving distributed parameters systems and control.
