Stabilization of Distributed Parameter Systems: Design Methods and Applications (ICIAM 2019 SEMA SIMAI Springer Series)

This book presents recent results and envisages new solutions of the stabilization problem for infinite-dimensional control systems. Its content is based on the extended versions of presentations at the Thematic Minisymposium “Stabilization of Distributed Parameter Systems: Design Methods and Applications” at ICIAM 2019, held in Valencia from 15 to 19 July 2019. This volume aims at bringing together contributions on stabilizing control design for different classes of dynamical systems described by partial differential equations, functional-differential equations, delay equations, and dynamical systems in abstract spaces. This includes new results in the theory of nonlinear semigroups, port-Hamiltonian systems, turnpike phenomenon, and further developments of Lyapunov's direct method. The scope of the book also covers applications of these methods to mathematical models in continuum mechanics and chemical engineering. It is addressed to readers interested in control theory,differential equations, and dynamical systems.

Alexander Zuyev received his Ph.D. degree in 2000 from the Institute of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (IAMM NASU). He was a visiting scientist at the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics under the aegis of UNESCO and IAEA in Trieste and received the Alexander von Humboldt Research Fellowship at TU Ilmenau and the University of Stuttgart. Since his habilitation in 2008, he has been working as a Professor at Donetsk National University and a Leading Researcher and Department Head at IAMM NASU. He is currently with the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics of Complex Technical Systems and the Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg in Germany. Prof. Zuyev authored 2 books and more than 50 articles in the field of mathematical control theory, stability theory, and mathematical problems of mechanics and chemical engineering.
