About this Item

Paperback. This thesis considers the linear-quadratic optimal control problem for differential-algebraic systems. In this first part, a complete theoretical analysis of this problem is presented. The basis is a new differential-algebraic version of the Kalman-Yakubovich-Popov (KYP) lemma. One focus is the analysis of the solution structure of the associated descriptor KYP inequality. In particular, rank-minimizing, stabilizing, and extremal solutions are characterized which gives a deep insight into the structure of the problem. Further contributions include new relations of the descriptor KYP inequality to structured matrix pencils, conditions for the existence of nonpositive solutions, and the application of the new theory to the characterization of dissipative systems and the factorization of rational matrix-valued functions. The second part of this thesis focuses on robustness questions, i.e., the influence of perturbations on system properties like dissipativity and stability is discussed. Characterizations for the distance of a dissipative systems to the set of non-dissipative systems are given which lead to a numerical method for computing this distance.Furthermore, the problem of computing the H-infinity-norm of a large-scale differential-algebraic system is considered. Two approaches for this computation are introduced and compared to each other. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

About this title

Synopsis

Wann wird aus Wut Gewalt? Welche Entwicklungen durchleben Mädchen, die später gewalttätig werden? Wie kann man mit der Wut und dem gewalttätigen Verhalten von Mädchen umgehen?



Anja Steingen hat in Zusammenarbeit mit Melanie Gehring-Decker und Katharina Knors die Erfahrungen des Kölner Anti-Gewalt-Programms f|r Mädchen (KAPM) zusammengetragen. Das Buch gibt einen Einblick in die Lebenswelten gewalttätiger Mädchen und beschreibt das Phänomen, die Hintergr|nde und die Zusammenhänge von Mädchengewalt. Es vermittelt und begr|ndet konkrete Interventionen f|r die pädagogische Praxis und enthält zahlreiche Fall- und Praxisbeispiele sowie Übungen f|r den Umgang und die Arbeit mit gewalttätigen Mädchen.
