      Adaptive sliding mode control of a hypersonic flight vehicle 

      Xu, H.; Leung, P.; Mirmirani, M.; Boussalis, Helen R.; Ioannou, Petros A. (2001)
      A Multi Input Multi Output (MIMO) adaptive sliding controller is designed and analyzed for the longitudinal dynamics of a generic hypersonic air vehicle. This vehicle model is highly nonlinear, multivariable, unstable and ...

      Centralized, decentralized, and overlapping control designs for a segmented telescope 

      Li, K.; Kosmatopoulos, E. B.; Ioannou, Petros A.; Boussalis, Helen R. (IEEE, 1999)
      The accurate control of the segments of large segmented telescopes to achieve the desired shape could open the way for the construction of much larger telescopes with much better capabilities. In this article, we consider ...

      Control techniques for a large segmented reflector 

      Li, K.; Kosmatopoulos, E. B.; Ioannou, Petros A.; Boussalis, Helen R.; Mirmirani, M.; Chassiakos, Anastassios (1998)
      NASA has founded a project to design and construct a test-bed in the Controls and Structures Laboratory at the California State University to study the complex dynamic behavior of large segmented optical systems. The ...

      Neural network control of unknown systems 

      Kosmatopoulos, Elias B.; Chassiakos, Anastassios; Boussalis, Helen R.; Mirmirani, Maj; Ioannou, Petros A. (IEEE, 1998)
      In this paper, we show that for all unknown Multi-Input (MI) nonlinear system that affected by external disturbances, it is possible to construct a semi-global state-feedback stabilizer when the only information about the ...

      Robust adaptive sliding control of linearizable systems 

      Xu, H.; Mirmirani, M.; Ioannou, Petros A.; Boussalis, Helen R. (2001)
      A switching adaptive control algorithm based on a sliding mode method is proposed for a class of single-input, single-output nonlinear systems with unknown dynamics. The plant is assumed to be linear-in-the-control input ...
