Images of the devastation wreaked by typhoons, flooding,
earthquakes and drought in the Philippines circulate globally as an
important part of disaster discourses. This collection seeks to
move beyond these simplistic representations of calamity by
bringing together a group of Filipino and international scholars
from diverse disciplinary backgrounds to grapple with the complex
nature of disaster in the Philippines. Firmly grounded in the
relationship between disaster and place, the volume's contributors
confront the challenges of the Philippine nation's internal
heterogeneity of language, ethnicity and class. In doing so, this
book seeks to engage the specificities of place amid diversity, and
explores two broad but interrelating avenues of investigation
through case studies drawn from across the archipelago: How can
environmental extremity in the Philippines help us understand
disasters? How can disasters help us understand the Philippines?
The fundamental problem in control engineering is to provide robust
performance to uncertain plants. H -control theory began in the
early eighties as an attempt to lay down rigorous foundations on
the classical robust control requirements. It now turns out that H
-control theory is at the crossroads of several important
directions of research space or polynomial approach to control and
classical interpolation theory; harmonic analysis and operator
theory; minimax LQ stochastic control and integral equations. The
book presents the underlying fundamental ideas, problems and
advances through the pen of leading contributors to the field, for
graduate students and researchers in both engineering and
mathematics. From the Contents: C. Foias: Commutant Lifting
