Nonlinear phenomena encountered in aviation and aerospace applications have stimulated cooperation among engineers and scientists from a range of disciplines. Developments in computer technology now allow solutions to many nonlinear problems, and industrial recognition of the use and applications of nonlinear mathematical models for solving technological problems is on the rise.

Advances in Dynamics and Control clearly reflects the effectiveness of this interdisciplinary cooperation. This carefully edited volume contains research papers contributed by international experts that explore many new ideas, results, and research directions. These papers cover a wide range of topics, from rotorcraft dynamics, stabilization of unstable aircraft, spacecraft and satellite dynamics and control, missile auto-pilot and guidance design, hybrid system dynamics and control, intelligent control, neuro-fuzzy techniques, and structural and acoustic modelling.
