The optimal control approach to robust control design differs from conventional direct approaches to robust control that are more commonly discussed by firstly translating the robust control problem into its optimal control counterpart, and then solving the optimal control problem.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eRobust Control Design: An Optimal Control Approach\u003c\/i\u003e offers a complete presentation of this approach to robust control design, presenting modern control theory in an concise manner. The other two major approaches to robust control design, the H_infinite approach and the Kharitonov approach, are also covered  and described in the simplest terms possible, in order to provide a complete overview of the area. It includes up-to-date research, and offers both theoretical and practical applications that include flexible structures, robotics, and automotive and aircraft control.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eRobust Control Design: An Optimal Control Approach\u003c\/i\u003e will be of interest to those needing an introductory textbook on robust control theory, design and applications as well as graduate and postgraduate students involved in systems and control research.
