ABSTRACT
This chapter is concerned with the tracking control problem of a class of unknown
nonaffine dynamic systems that involve unpredictable sensor and actuation failures.
As the control inputs enter the system and influence its behavior through a nonlinear
and implicit way, control design for such systems becomes quite challenging. The
underlying problem becomes even more complex if the system dynamics is
unavailable for control design yet involves unanticipated sensor and/or actuator
faults. In this chapter, a generalized PI control is developed for a class of nonaffine
systems in the presence of sensor and actuator faults.
