Eigenstructure Control Algorithms: Applications to Aircraft/Rotorcraft Handling Qualities Design

Written for graduate students and professionals, Eigenstructure Control Algorithms develops a multivariable control theory based on eigenstructure control along with flight control applications. The book covers both theoretical algorithm development along with detailed flight control application examples. Topics include eigenstructure assignment using dynamic feedback, robust eigenstructure assignment, modal canonical functional observers, model-following control systems, and aircraft and rotorcraft control applications.

MATLAB and Control System Toolbox are used to solve application examples. In addition, a supplemental set of MATLAB code files is available for download.
