Eigenstructure Control Algorithms: Applications to aircraft/rotorcraft handling qualities design

This book demonstrates that eigenstructure control theory can be easily adapted and infused into aircraft industry's stringent design practices. Thus practicing flight control engineers will find it useful to explore the use of the new design concepts discussed in the book. The book, being interdisciplinary in nature, encompassing control theory and flight dynamics should be of interest to both control and aeronautical engineers. In particular control researchers may find it interesting to explore extension of the theory to new multivariable control problem formulations. Finally the book should be of interest to graduate/doctoral students, keen on learning a multivariable control technique that is useful to design practical control systems.
