This scope includes differential geometric and algebraic methods; semigroup and operator theory; Lyapunov-based and backstepping techniques; passivity and dissipativity; controllability and observability analysis; model reduction; computational methods; real-time control; actuator and sensor placement; and experimental design.
Applications are also explored, such as energy generation, distribution, and storage; process intensification and chemical engineering; adaptive optics; quantum systems; distributed cooperative systems; modern embedded actuators and sensors; traffic and network congestion; and flexible micro-structures.
