The Influence of Demographic Stochasticity on Population Dynamics
A Mathematical Study of Noise-Induced Bistable States and Stochastic Patterns
Language: English
Release Date: June 4, 2014
The dynamics of population systems cannot be understood within the framework of ordinary differential equations, which assume that the number of interacting agents is infinite. With recent advances in ecology, biochemistry and genetics it is becoming increasingly clear that real systems are in fact...
Nonlinear Model Predictive Control
Theory and Algorithms
Language: English
Release Date: April 11, 2011
Nonlinear Model Predictive Control is a thorough and rigorous introduction to nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) for discrete-time and sampled-data systems. NMPC is interpreted as an approximation of infinite-horizon optimal control so that important properties like closed-loop stability, inverse...

Dynamic Surface Control of Uncertain Nonlinear Systems
An LMI Approach
Language: English
Release Date: May 16, 2011
Although the problem of nonlinear controller design is as old as that of linear controller design, the systematic design methods framed in response are more sparse. Given the range and complexity of nonlinear systems, effective new methods of control design are therefore of significant importance....
Iterative Learning Control
An Optimization Paradigm
Language: English
Release Date: October 31, 2015
This book develops a coherent and quite general theoretical approach to algorithm design for iterative learning control based on the use of operator representations and quadratic optimization concepts including the related ideas of inverse model control and gradient-based design.
Using detailed...

Cooperative Agents
Applications in the Social Sciences
Language: English
Release Date: June 29, 2013
Agent-based modelling on a computer appears to have a special role to play in the development of social science. It offers a means of discovering general and applicable social theory, and grounding it in precise assumptions and derivations, whilst addressing those elements of individual cognition...
