Riassunto

This book demonstrates that eigenstructure control theory can be easily adapted and infused into aircraft industry's stringent design practices. Thus practicing flight control engineers will find it useful to explore the use of the new design concepts discussed in the book. The book, being interdisciplinary in nature, encompassing control theory and flight dynamics should be of interest to both control and aeronautical engineers. In particular control researchers may find it interesting to explore extension of the theory to new multivariable control problem formulations. Finally the book should be of interest to graduate/doctoral students, keen on learning a multivariable control technique that is useful to design practical control systems.

L'autore

Dr Srinathkumar holds BE (Bangalore University, India, 1960), MS (University of Hawaii, 1973) and PhD (Oklahoma State University, 1976) degrees all in Electrical Engineering. He has spent all his professional life as a scientist at the National Aerospace Laboratories (NAL), India (1961-71,1978-2000). During 1993-2000, he served as Head of the Flight Mechanics and Control Division, NAL. He has spent two sabbaticals (1976-78, 1987-89) at NASA Langley Research Center, Virginia, USA, under the USA National Research Council Fellowship program. During his tenures at NASA, he was involved in pioneering application of Eigenstructure Control techniques for aircraft flight control (1976-78) and design & successful experimental demonstration of active flutter control of a flexible wing (1987-89). His current interest continues to be in the application of modern control techniques to Aircraft and Rotorcraft handling qualities design problems.
