Weidong Zhang

Seyed Kamaleddin Yadavar Nikravesh

Shanghai Jiaotong University, People’s Republic of China

Using a Lyapunov-based approach, this book introduces some advanced tools for the stability analysis of nonlinear systems. It first discusses standard stability techniques and their shortcomings and then introduces recent developments in stability analysis that can improve the applicability of standard techniques. Finally, the book proposes the stability analysis of special classes of nonlinear systems, for example, time-delayed systems and fuzzy systems. Coverage includes the stability of ordinary time-invariant differential equations and timeinvariant systems as well as the stability analysis of time-delayed systems and fuzzy linguistic systems models.

This work explains how to solve industrial system problems using a novel control system design theory. This easy-to-use theory does not require designers to choose a weighting function and enables the controllers to be designed or tuned for quantitative engineering performance indices such as overshoot. Equally emphasizing theoretical and application aspects of the subject, the book bridges classical control theory and the newly arriving generation of robust control theory. It includes numerous exercises and examples drawn from aeronautical, mechanical, and chemical engineering.

VCD Spectroscopy for Organic Chemists Philip John Stephens and Frank J. Devlin University of Southern California, Los Angeles, USA

Ferid Bashirov Kazan Federal University, Russia

James R. Cheeseman

The theory of hindered motions of small molecules and molecular fragments in crystals and liquids allows one to obtain detailed knowledge of both the crystal structure and the dynamical behavior of molecules. Application of the theory to describe such phenomena as NMR relaxation rates and spectral line broadening expands the power of many spectroscopy techniques. The author compares this theoretical approach with recent experimental results. Specific topics covered include the extended angular jump model, angular autocorrelation functions, dielectric, optical and neutron scattering spectroscopy applications, and nuclear magnetic resonance spin-lattice relaxation applications.

This book presents the technique of Vibrational Circular Dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy and discusses its applications to the structural characterization of chiral organic molecules. The book provides all of the information about VCD spectroscopy that an organic chemist needs in order to make use of the technique. The authors, experts responsible for much of the existing literature in this field, discuss the experimental measurement of VCD and the theoretical prediction of VCD. They also evaluate the advantages and limitations of the technique in determining molecular structure.

Despite the introduction of constrained principal component analysis (CPCA) over 20 years ago, there is no single resource that examines its ramifications, extensions, implementations, and applications. This book explores how CPCA incorporates external information into PCA of a main data matrix. It provides a systematic, in-depth account of the mathematical underpinnings, special cases, related topics, interesting applications, and implementation details. The author explains how CPCA first decomposes the data matrix according to the external information (external analysis) and then applies PCA to decomposed matrices (internal analysis).
