The book will be organized in three parts, one focusing on the analysis of complex nonlinear dynamics, including chaotic dynamics, whereas the second part is devoted to synchronization of interconnected complex systems. The final part of the book is dedicated to the control of nonlinear systems, in particular, to the design and implementation of robust control techniques, and its potential application in mechanical systems. Here typically connections with the other parts will be included and where possible illustrated by real examples.
This book is suitable for scientists, control engineers and dynamicists interested in a timely review related to the control of nonlinear systems and how this intersects to the modelling, analysis and synchronization of complex systems.
