The Bridge Over the Neroch: And Other Works

By: Leonid Tsypkin

From the acclaimed author of Summer in Baden-Baden, a collection of short work finally in English. Leonid Tsypkin’s novel Summer in Baden-Baden was hailed as an undiscovered classic of 20th-century Russian literature. The Washington Post claimed it “a chronicle of fevered genius,” and The New York Review of Books described it as “gripping, mysterious and profoundly moving.” In her introduction,Susan Sontag said: “If you want from one book an experience of the depth and authority of Russian literature, read this book.” At long last, here are the remaining writings of Leonid Tsypkin: in the powerful novella Bridge Across the Neroch, the history of four generations of a Russian-Jewish family is seen through the lens of a doctor living in Moscow. In Norartakir, a husband and wife on vacation in Armenia bask in the view of Mt. Ararat and the ancient history of the land, until they are unceremoniously kicked out of their hotel and returned to Soviet reality. The remaining stories offer knowing windows into Soviet urban life. As the translator Jamey Gambrell says in her preface: "For Tsypkin's narrator, history is a tightrope to be walked every minute of every day, in both his internal and external world.

Self-Oscillations in Dynamic Systems

A New Methodology via Two-Relay Controllers

By: Luis T. Aguilar,Igor Boiko,Leonid Fridman,Rafael Iriarte

This monograph presents a simple and efficient two-relay control algorithm for generation of self-excited oscillations of a desired amplitude and frequency in dynamic systems. Developed by the authors, the two-relay controller consists of two relays switched by the feedback received from a linear or nonlinear system, and represents a new approach to the self-generation of periodic motions in underactuated mechanical systems. The first part of the book explains the design procedures for two-relay control using three different methodologies – the describing-function method, Poincaré maps, and the locus-of-a perturbed-relay-system method – and concludes with stability analysis of designed periodic oscillations. Two methods to ensure the robustness of two-relay control algorithms are explored in the second part, one based on the combination of the high-order sliding mode controller and backstepping, and the other on higher-order sliding-modes-based reconstruction of uncertainties and their compensation where Lyapunov-based stability analysis of tracking error is used. Finally, the third part illustrates applications of self-oscillation generation by a two-relay control with a Furuta pendulum, wheel pendulum, 3-DOF underactuated robot, 3-DOF laboratory helicopter, and fixed-phase electronic circuits. Self-Oscillations in Dynamic Systems will appeal to engineers, researchers, and graduate students working on the tracking and self-generation of periodic motion of electromechanical systems, including non-minimum-phase systems. It will also be of interest to mathematicians working on analysis of periodic solutions.

Lyapunov Functionals and Stability of Stochastic Functional Differential Equations

By: Leonid Shaikhet

Stability conditions for functional differential equations can be obtained using Lyapunov functionals. Lyapunov Functionals and Stability of Stochastic Functional Differential Equations describes the general method of construction of Lyapunov functionals to investigate the stability of differential equations with delays. This work continues and complements the author’s previous book Lyapunov Functionals and Stability of Stochastic Difference Equations, where this method is described for difference equations with discrete and continuous time. The text begins with both a description and a delineation of the peculiarities of deterministic and stochastic functional differential equations. There follows basic definitions for stability theory of stochastic hereditary systems, and the formal procedure of Lyapunov functionals construction is presented. Stability investigation is conducted for stochastic linear and nonlinear differential equations with constant and distributed delays. The proposed method is used for stability investigation of different mathematical models such as: • inverted controlled pendulum; • Nicholson's blowflies equation; • predator-prey relationships; • epidemic development; and • mathematical models that describe human behaviours related to addictions and obesity. Lyapunov Functionals and Stability of Stochastic Functional Differential Equations is primarily addressed to experts in stability theory but will also be of interest to professionals and students in pure and computational mathematics, physics, engineering, medicine, and biology.

Control of Systems with Aftereffect

By: Vladimir Borisovich Kolmanovskiĭ,Leonid Efimovich Shaĭkhet

Deterministic and stochastic control systems with aftereffect are considered. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the optimality of such systems are obtained. Various methods for the construction of exact and approximate solutions of optimal control problems are suggested. Problems of adaptive control for systems with aftereffect are analyzed. Numerous applications are described. The book can be used by researchers, engineers, and graduate students working in optimal control theory and various applications.

Sliding Mode Control and Observation

By: Yuri Shtessel,Christopher Edwards,Leonid Fridman,Arie Levant

The sliding mode control methodology has proven effective in dealing with complex dynamical systems affected by disturbances, uncertainties and unmodeled dynamics. Robust control technology based on this methodology has been applied to many real-world problems, especially in the areas of aerospace control, electric power systems, electromechanical systems, and robotics. Sliding Mode Control and Observation represents the first textbook that starts with classical sliding mode control techniques and progresses toward newly developed higher-order sliding mode control and observation algorithms and their applications. The present volume addresses a range of sliding mode control issues, including: *Conventional sliding mode controller and observer design *Second-order sliding mode controllers and differentiators *Frequency domain analysis of conventional and second-order sliding mode controllers *Higher-order sliding mode controllers and differentiators *Higher-order sliding mode observers *Sliding mode disturbance observer based control *Numerous applications, including reusable launch vehicle and satellite formation control, blood glucose regulation, and car steering control are used as case studies Sliding Mode Control and Observation is aimed at graduate students with a basic knowledge of classical control theory and some knowledge of state-space methods and nonlinear systems, while being of interest to a wider audience of graduate students in electrical/mechanical/aerospace engineering and applied mathematics, as well as researchers in electrical, computer, chemical, civil, mechanical, aeronautical, and industrial engineering, applied mathematicians, control engineers, and physicists. Sliding Mode Control and Observation provides the necessary tools for graduate students, researchers and engineers to robustly control complex and uncertain nonlinear dynamical systems. Exercises provided at the end of each chapter make this an ideal text for an advanced course taught in control theory.

Verano en Baden-Baden

By: Leonid Tsypkin

Esta impresionante y singular novela transcurre en dos planos temporales. Uno arranca en 1867 y recrea el viaje que Dostoievski y su joven esposa, Ana Grigorievna, hicieron por distintas capitales de Europa durante cuatro tormentosos años de enfermedad, pobreza, juego y lucha contra sus propios fantasmas; el otro recoge, en un indefinido presente, el viaje del propio autor de Moscú a un Leningrado aún herido por los horrores del sitio, reconstruyendo las huellas de Dostoievski con la ayuda del diario de Ana. Escrita entre 1977 y 1980, Verano en Baden-Baden fue sacada de Rusia clandestinamente y publicada por entregas en ruso en un semanario de Nueva York en 1982. Leonid Tsypkin jamás supo que su obra sería publicada. Hoy está traducida a catorce idiomas, considerada una obra digna de figurar entre las más hermosas, importantes y originales del siglo XX. Dice Susan Sontag en el prólogo que la prosa de Tsypkin recuerda a Saramago y posee la fuerza de Thomas Bernhard. Y añade: «parecería improbable que aún haya obras maestras... Sin embargo, hace unos diez años, saqueando una caja de desaliñados libros viejos en una librería en la calle londinense de Charing Cross, justamente di con un libro así, Verano en Baden-Baden, que incluiría entre las hazañas más hermosas, exaltadas y originales de todo un siglo de narrativa y metanarrativa».
