Content and learning outcomes

Course contents

Nonlinear Differential Systems,Periodic Solutions, Lyapunov Stability Theory, Stability of Invariant Set and Model Reduction, Controllability and Observability of Nonlinear Systems, Feedback Stabilization, Tracking and Regulation, and Other Topics.

Intended learning outcomes

A systematic understanding of nonlinear control systems.

This course gives an overview on nonlinear dynamical systems, presented from systems and control point of view. In this course, both analysis and synthesis techniques will be covered. Thus it is very suitable for students who want to have a basic understanding of nonlinear systems. We plan to cover a range of topics on nonlinear systems such as approximation methods, periodic solutions, Lyapunov stability, controllability and observability, feedback stabilization and output regulation.
