Stabilization of nonlinear systems using receding-horizon control schemes : a parametrized approach for fast systems /

While conceptually elegant, the generic formulations of nonlinear model predictive control are not ready to use for the stabilization of fast systems. Dr. Alamir presents a successful approach to this problem based on a co-operation between structural considerations and on-line optimization. The bal...
