Description
Springer Nonlinear Systems Analysis Stability and Control by Shankar Sastry
There has been much excitement over the emergence of new mathematical techniques for the analysis and control of nonlinear systems. In addition, great technological advances have bolstered the impact of analytic advances and produced many new problems and applications which are nonlinear in an essential way. This book lays out in a concise mathematical framework the tools and methods of analysis which underlie this diversity of applications._x000D_ Table of contents :- _x000D_
