International Workshop on Dynamics and Control 2000 : Rio de Janeiro, Brazil)
1 online resource (ix, 437 pages) : illustrations
Dynamical Systems and Control documents the major presentations of the 11th International Workshop on Dynamics and Control, providing a foundation for further research. Contributed papers shed light on physical, biological and economic phenomena through lines of reasoning that originate from this discipline. This book covers fundamental advances in dynamics, dynamical systems, and control, examines new and innovative techniques and their applications, and relates dynamics and control to social, economic, and biological issues. Applications explored include the control of cars and robots, to th.
