Control and Stabilization of Linear and Nonlinear Distributed Systems

Abstract

This report summarizes the results of a study on the control and stabilization of linear and nonlinear distributed systems covering the period from April, 1986 through December, 1988. The specific areas of this study consists of (i) stability enhancement of distributed systems describable by abstract linear evolution equations, (ii) a translation invariant approach to stability and stabilizability, (iii) stabilizability of bilinear systems, (iv) application of computer vision in static shape estimation, control, and failure detection in elastic systems, and (v) stabilization and control of distributed systems with application to aeroelastic systems with extendible lifting surfaces. The main objective of this study is to develop applicable mathematical theories and at the same time study specific systems arising from realistic aerospace applications.
