Publisher's Synopsis
This text provides an easy way to learn feedback linearization technique which is one of the most used technique in nonlinear control dynamical systems; therefore teachers-students and researchers are all in need to handle such technique; and since it is too difficult for them to handle such nonlinear controller especially for those which are more complicated such as induction motor, satellite, and vehicles dynamical models. Thus, this document it is an excellent resource for learning the principle of feedback linearization technique in the easy and simple way: 1.Provides a briefs description of the feedback linearization technique 2.Includes a simple method on how to determine the right and appropriate controller (P-PI-PID) 3.Provides a Matlab symbolic based program that can solve the Lie derivative of any nonlinear dynamical system that could be written in a special form 4.A Matlab symbolic script that can provide the users with the feedback linearization controller The relative degree of the system which can be found using the provided Matlab code; can be used to determine the degree of the Sliding Mode Surface; which is a very important scalar for those who are working with Variable Structure Control There are many examples used in the last chapter with a modified Matlab program such as: 1.Aircraft dynamical model is used in the case of single input single output linear systems 2.Induction motor dynamical model is used to construct the nonlinear controller for the case of multi-input multi-output nonlinear systems Where the program used to construct the nonlinear controller uses symbolic computations; such that the user should provide the program with the necessary functions f(x), g(x) and h(x) using the symbolic library. Note: Make sure the function syms is existed on your Matlab by type help sysm on Matlab
