Optimal & Robust Control

Optimal & Robust Control generally refers to that broad class of control systems that encompasses the most of Mechanical Systems, Servo systems, Aerospace Applications, etc. We look at them as application areas of general classic control approaches like Lyapunov Theory and Linear Control Theory and also relatively recent approaches like Sliding Mode Control, Neuro-Fuzzy tools, etc. .


Fields of Research in Optimal & Robust Control

  • Aerospace Applications
  • Sliding Mode
