The author attempts to portray the ideas and general principles of the theory of materials
within the framework of phenomenological continuum mechanics. It is a well-written rigorous …

In this chapter, some recent stability and robust stability results on linear time-delay systems
are outlined. The goal of this guided tour is to give (without entering the details) a wide …

Mathematics is playing an ever more important role in the physical and biologi cal sciences,
provoking a blurring of boundaries between scientific disciplines and a resurgence of …

This article proposes a methodology for the synthesis of nonlinear robust feedback
controllers for diffusion–convection–reaction processes with time-varying uncertain …

We develop a novel frequency‐based H∞‐control method for a large class of infinite‐
dimensional linear time‐invariant systems in transfer function form. A major benefit of our …

This work concerns systems of quasi-linear first-order hyperbolic partial differential
equations (PDEs) with uncertain variables and unmodeled dynamics. For systems with …

In many applications, such as diffusion and structural vibrations, the physical quantity of
interest depends on both position and time. Some examples are shown in Figures 1-3 …
