For a first course on nonlinear control that can be taught in one semester

This book emerges from the award-winning book, Nonlinear Systems, but has a distinctly different mission and organization. While Nonlinear Systems was intended as a reference and a text on nonlinear system analysis and its application to control, this streamlined book is intended as a text for a first course on nonlinear control. In Nonlinear Control, author Hassan K. Khalil employs a writing style that is intended to make the book accessible to a wider audience without compromising the rigor of the presentation.

Teaching and Learning Experience

This program will provide a better teaching and learning experience–for you and your students. It will help:

  • Provide an Accessible Approach to Nonlinear Control: This streamlined book is intended as a text for a first course on nonlinear control that can be taught in one semester.
  • Support Learning: Over 250 end-of-chapter exercises give students plenty of opportunities to put theory into action.
  • A New Approach from an Award-winning Author: This book emerges from the award-winning book, Nonlinear Systems, but has a distinctly different mission and organisation. While Nonlinear Systems was intended as a reference and a text on nonlinear system analysis and its application to control, this streamlined book is intended as a text for a first course on nonlinear control.
  • Designed for the First Course on Nonlinear Control: Nonlinear Control is intended for use in a first course on nonlinear control that can be taught in one semester (forty lectures).
  • Accessible Writing that Resonates with Students: The writing style is accessible to a wider audience without compromising the rigor of the presentation.
  • End-of-chapter Exercises: Over 250 end-of-chapter exercises give students plenty of opportunities to put theory into action; almost all of the exercises are different from Nonlinear Systems. Many exercises require computer simulation using MATLAB or SIMULINK.
