Instructor

Office Hours: Fridays, by appointment
Grading
Pass / Fail.
Prerequisites
Linear systems and control, basic understanding of nonlinear dynamics,
Lyapunov stability theory, numerical methods, MATLAB.
Course Outline
The main goal of this course is to give a self-contained mathematical treatment of
robust adaptive control theory and its current state of the art. Throughout the
course, aerospace applications of robust adaptive control for uncertain dynamical
systems (such as unmanned aircraft and guided munitions) will be presented.
Project
The course project will consist of a design, analysis, and simulation of an
adaptive controller for a nonlinear dynamical system. Course projects will be
assigned no later than the 4th week of classes from a list of available topics.
Project reports will consist of both written and oral portions. The written portion
of the report should be a detailed description of the selected topic using the
terminology and notation of the class. Reports are due the first day of finals
week. Students will present their work in class, during the last week of the term.
