In this research, a class of output feedback linearizable MIMO nonlinear systems is considered to be affected by both matched and unmatched uncertainties. The design of output feedback control law relies on an integral manifold, which permits subdivision of the control design architecture into two steps. In the first step, pole placement based continuous control component is designed, which reg...

In this paper, an adaptive fuzzy control scheme is proposed for a class of perturbed strict-feedback nonlinear systems with unknown discrete and distributed time-varying delays, and the proposed design method does not require a priori knowledge of the signs of the control gains.Based on the backstepping technique, the adaptive fuzzy controller is constructed. The main contributions of the paper...

There are many examples of mechanical systems which require rolling contacts between two or more rigid bodies. Rolling contacts engender nonholonomic constraints in an otherwise holonomic system. In this paper, we develop a unified approach to the control of mechanical systems subject to both holonomic and nonholonomic constraints. We first present a state space realization of a constrained sys...

This research deals to introduce a new method for generalizing the well-famed Quantitative Feedback Theory (QFT) in granting robustness of Feedback linearization on nonlinear systems. In this new scheme, first applying feedback linearization, with selecting operating points in domain of system parameter's variations, nonlinear systems replaced with linear systems, then robust controller is desi...

This paper surveys some well-known facts as well as some recent developments on the topic of stabilization of nonlinear systems.

this paper investigates on control and stabilization of a new hyperchaotic system. the hyperchaotic system is stabilized using a new technique which called generalized backstepping method (gbm). because of its similarity to backstepping approach, this method is called gbm. but, this method is more applicable in comparison with conventional backstepping.  backstepping method is used only for sys...

this paper concerns a study on the optimal control for nonlinear systems. an appropriate alternative in order to alleviate the nonlinearity of a system is the exact linearization approach. in this fashion, the nonlinear system has been linearized using input-output feedback linearization (iofl). then, by utilizing the well developed optimal control theory of linear systems, the compensated nonl...
