This book is an essential guide to nonlinear dynamics and vibration control, detailing both the theory and the practical industrial applications within all aspects of engineering. It will aid both students and engineers in practically and safely improving flexible structures through control methods.

This book described vibration reduction for flexible structures by the command smoothing techniques. The command smoothing technique is a kind of open-loop controller. The operator?s commands filter through a piecewise continuous function, called smoother, to produce smoothed commands. Smoothed commands move flexible dynamic systems toward desired positions with minimal oscillations. Five types of command smoother were reported including one-piece, two-pieces, three-pieces, and four-pieces smoothers, and the smoother for multi-mode Duffing oscillators. All smoothers are robust to changes in the system parameters and working conditions. The command smoothing technique has been successfully applied to industrial cranes, sloshing suppression, flexible manipulators, high-speed cam and follower systems, and helicopter slung loads.

Provides a comprehensive and in-depth treatment of one of the most important control problems: the nonlinear output regulation problem. Contains up-to-date research results and algorithms and tools for approaching and solving the output regulation problem and other related problems, such as robust stabilization of nonlinear systems.

This book provides techniques to produce robust, stable and useable solutions to problems of H-infinity and H2 control in high-performance, non-linear systems for the first time.
