The goal of controlling a system is to reach or retain stability. In control theory, stability is described with the Lyapunov stability criteria and mathematical models that set into relation the ...

Optimal control theory provides a rigorous mathematical framework for determining control policies that optimise a given performance criterion while accounting for system dynamics and constraints. Its ...

Control theory is the study of how one can use feedback to modify the behavior of a system — such as a robot, vehicle, chemical or biological process, power grid, stock portfolio, or an ecosystem — so ...
