This volume presents a well balanced combination of state-of-the-art theoretical results in the field of nonlinear controller and observer design, combined with
Underactuated multibody systems are intriguing mechatronic systems, as they posses fewer control inputs than degrees of freedom. Some examples are modern light-
In the 60's, control, signals and systems had a common linear algebraic background and, according to their evolution, their respective backgrounds have now dram
