    Control and Dynamic Systems: Advances in Theory in Applications, Volume 29: Advances in Algorithms and Computational Techniques in Dynamic Systems Control, Part 2 of 3 discusses developments in algorithms and computational techniques for control and dynamic systems. This volume discusses some computational problems which arose in the applications of Kalman filters. It also examines system fault detection techniques; computational techniques in angle-only tracking filtering; development of real-time knowledge of system parameters; and algorithms for decentralized systems with application to stream water quality. This book is an important reference for practitioners in the field who want a comprehensive source of techniques with significant applied implications.

  • Optimal Control Theory with Economic Applications

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 24
    • A. Seierstad + 1 more
    • English
    This book serves not only as an introduction, but also as an advanced text and reference source in the field of deterministic optimal control systems governed by ordinary differential equations. It also includes an introduction to the classical calculus of variations. An important feature of the book is the inclusion of a large number of examples, in which the theory is applied to a wide variety of economics problems. The presentation of simple models helps illuminate pertinent qualitative and analytic points, useful when confronted with a more complex reality. These models cover: economic growth in both open and closed economies, exploitation of (non-) renewable resources, pollution control, behaviour of firms, and differential games. A great emphasis on precision pervades the book, setting it apart from the bulk of literature in this area. The rigorous techniques presented should help the reader avoid errors which often recur in the application of control theory within economics.
