About this ebook

The 1st Global Edition of Nonlinear Control by Hassan K. Khalil (published by Pearson) is a streamlined, one-semester textbook derived from his classic text, Nonlinear Systems. It features a re-architected structure focused heavily on introductory control applications and analysis tools. [1, 2, 3]

The book is organized into 13 chapters detailing the following core topics: [1, 2]

Chapter 1: Introduction
Covers the basic definition of nonlinear state models, the existence and uniqueness of solutions, changes of variables, and initial concept explanations of equilibrium points.
Chapter 2: Two-Dimensional Systems
Focuses on the qualitative behavior of linear systems, behavior near equilibrium points, multiple equilibria, and building phase portraits.
Chapter 3: Stability of Equilibrium Points
Introduces autonomous and nonautonomous stability definitions, centering on Lyapunov's method for evaluating local and global stability.
Chapter 4: Time-Varying and Perturbed Systems
Explores how systems behave under dynamic perturbations and time-dependent variations.
Chapter 5: Passivity
Analyzes passivity properties in physical and mathematical models, paving the way for passivity-based controller designs.
Chapter 6: Input-Output Stability
Introduces alternative stability perspectives using gain concepts, $\mathcal{L}$-stability, and the small-gain theorem.
Chapter 7: Stability of Feedback Systems
Bridges analysis and design by evaluating closed-loop systems under linear and nonlinear feedback variations.
Chapter 8: Feedback Control
Transitions into design strategies, looking at linear design tools applied to nonlinear regimes.
Chapter 9: Feedback Linearization
Delves into geometric control concepts, input-output linearization, full-state linearization, and handling zero dynamics.
Chapter 10: Gain Scheduling
Focuses on designing linear controllers at distinct operating points and interpolating them to handle wider nonlinearities.
Chapter 11: Sliding Mode Control
Covers robust control design by keeping system trajectories locked onto a pre-defined sliding surface.
Chapter 12: Backstepping
Explores recursive control designs optimized for systems in specific cascaded forms.
Chapter 13: High-Gain Observers and Output Feedback
Concludes the text by addressing state estimation and output feedback stabilization using high-gain mechanics. [1, 2, 3, 4]
