      Adaptive control of linear time varying systems 

      Zhang, Youping; Ioannou, Petros A. (1996)
      A new class of adaptive controllers for linear time varying systems is designed and analyzed using nonlinear design techniques and the certainty-equivalence approach. It is established that this new class of controllers ...

      Comparison of a nonlinear adaptive controller with certainty-equivalence type adaptive controllers 

      Zhang, Youping; Ioannou, Petros A. (IEEE, 1995)
      Recently a new class of adaptive controllers for linear time invariant minimum phase plants has been proposed and analyzed. The design of these controllers is based on nonlinear tools and appears to be different from that ...

      Nonlinear control design for linear time varying systems 

      Zhang, Youping; Ioannou, Petros A. (1996)
      A new class of linear controllers for linear time varying systems are proposed. These controllers are based on nonlinear tools such as integrator backstepping and nonlinear damping, and on a new filter structure that ...

      Robust modification of a new class of adaptive controllers 

      Zhang, Youping; Ioannou, Petros A. (1995)
      Recently, a new class of adaptive control schemes, motivated from nonlinear systems theory, has been proposed for minimum phase linear time invariant plants. Under certain assumptions on the plant transfer function, these ...

      Robustness of nonlinear control systems with respect to unmodeled dynamics 

      Zhang, Youping; Ioannou, Petros A. (1996)
      In this paper, we examine the global stability properties of nonlinear controllers in the presence of high frequency unmodeled dynamics. We develop necessary and sufficient conditions for a general class of nonlinear control ...

      Robustness of the adaptive backstepping controllers for linear systems 

      Zhang, Youping; Ioannou, Petros A. (IEEE, 1997)
      In this paper, we present a unified procedure for designing and analyzing robust adaptive backstepping controllers for linear systems. Both the modular design and tuning functions design are considered. These controllers ...
