ABSTRACT

Part III of the book contains several practical examples and case studies to illustrate the applications of the tensor product (TP) model design strategy. These applications include a two-dimensional prototypical aeroelastic wing section in Chapter 14, and a three-dimensional version in Chapter 15 to demonstrate the readily extension of the TP model formulation to include higher complexity in the system model. A three degrees of freedom (3-DoF) helicopter with four propellers and a heavy vehicle rollover prevention problem are also treated in Chapter 16 and Chapter 17. If readers are interested, other TP model transformation-based control examples can be found in the following papers: [BY06], [SGNB08], [SHQW12], [RW11], [GWGL11], [QZL+11], [CW09], [Chu10],[LPK12], [LKPV11], [AHJM12], [RSV11], [SGB10], [PPU+08], [PDP+12], [PH11], [IMK11], [PDP+10], [IKM11], [KP06], [KPP06], [KSSK07], [TOP11].
