In April 2016 Manchester eScholar was replaced by the University of Manchester’s new Research Information Management System, Pure. In the autumn the University’s research outputs will be available to search and browse via a new Research Portal. Until then the University’s full publication record can be accessed via a temporary portal and the old eScholar content is available to search and browse via this archive.

Abstract

Control design for nonlinear systems remains an open problem in control theory despite the recent increase in research attention. This PhD work is motivated by this fact, addressing the constructive observer design approach, the output regulation problem, minimum entropy control, fault tolerant control (FTC), and iterative FTC for nonlinear systems.
