Description
This is the second of a series of IFAC Workshops initiated in 2000. The first one chaired and organized by Profs. N. Leonard and R. Ortega,
was held in Princeton in March 2000. This proceedings volume looks at the role-played by Lagrangian and Hamiltonian methods in disciplines
such as classical mechanics, quantum mechanics, fluid dynamics, electrodynamics, celestial mechanics and how such methods can be practically
applied in the control community.
Audience
Academic researchers and practitioners in the field of electrical and electronic engineering specializing in control systems
Contents
Control of mechanical, electro-mechanical and electrical systems; control of autonomous vehicles; Hamiltonian and Lagrangian control systems;
use of symplectic, Poisson and Dirac structures in control; role of symmetry, reduction and integrability in control; analysis of global
phase space structure and qualitative phenomena with application to control; quantum mechanical control systems; optimal control; effect
of physical and feedback-controlled dissipation; nonholonomic control systems; geometric nonlinear control of Hamiltonian and Lagrangian
systems; tracking and regulation for Hamiltonian and Lagrangian systems; infinite dimensional Hamiltonian and Lagrangian systems; control
of mechanical and electro-mechanical systems in the presence of delays and transmission lines
