Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The increasing complexity of modern machines demands advanced control strategies to ensure optimal performance, robustness, and adaptability. This Special Issue focuses on nonlinear and adaptive control methods for smart machines, addressing challenges in stability, efficiency, and real-time adaptability.
This Special Issue invites contributions to nonlinear control methods, adaptive algorithms, fault-tolerant control, and the real-time implementation of nonlinear control. We welcome original research and review articles addressing theoretical advancements, practical applications, and emerging trends in controlling smart machines, including robotics, UAVs, industrial automation, and autonomous vehicles.
This Special Issue aims to advance control methodologies for next-generation smart machines, fostering innovation in intelligent automation.
