Time-optimal and saturating controls with application to flexible structures
This dissertation is concerned with developing new time-optimal control techniques for higher-order linear and weakly nonlinear systems. As an application, we consider the simultaneous slewing and vibration suppression of a flexible beam, possibly with a tip mass. This application arises in the des...
