Physical, safety or technological constraints induce that the
control actuators can neither provide unlimited amplitude signals
nor unlimited speed of reaction. The control problems of combat
aircraft prototypes and satellite launchers offer interesting
examples of the difficulties due to these major constraints.
Neglecting actuator saturations on both amplitude and dynamics
can be source of undesirable or even catastrophic behavior for the
closed-loop system (such as loosing closed-loop stability).
Such actuator saturations have also been blamed as one of
several unfortunate mishaps leading to the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear
power plant disaster. For these reasons, the study of the control
problem (its structure, performance and stability analysis) for
systems subject to both amplitude and rate actuator or sensor
saturations as typical constraints has received the attention of
many researchers in the last years.
The different techniques described throughout the book are
particularly attractive for industrial applications not only in
aeronautical or space domains but also in the context of biological
systems domain. Such methods are well suited for the development of
tools that help engineers to solve analysis and synthesis problems
in the context of control systems with input and output
constraints
