Class Objectives
/Class Outline
The purpose of this series of lecture is to understand mathematical foundations for analysis and synthesis robust and nonlinear control systems as well as the theorem-proof methodology in mathematics. This course will be conducted in a seminar format, where each student will prepare in advance and give a lecture on their assigned topic to the other students.

lesson2: Uncertainties of Dynamical Systems  (Wada)
lesson3: Linear Matrix Inequality  (Wada)
lesson4: Robust Stability  (Wada)
lesson5: Robust Control  (Wada)
lesson6: Gain-scheduled Control  (Wada)
lesson7: Exercise (1)  (Wada)
lesson8: Exercise (2)  (Wada)
lesson9: Nonlinear Models and Nonlinear Phenomena (Kawano)
lesson10: Second-Order Systems  (Kawano)
lesson11: Solutions to Differential Equations (1)  (Kawano)
lesson12: Solutions to Differential Equations (2)  (Kawano)
