Linear Robust Control Solution Manual

Every serious student of a technical scientific subject has spent late nights struggling with homework assignments at some time during their career. The frustrations which go along with this activity range from: “I don’t have the foggiest idea how to do this exercise” to “this is probably right, but it would be nice to have my solution checked by an expert.” It is our expectation that the student exercises in our book Linear Robust Control, published by Prentice-Hall, 1994, will generate both the above sentiments at some stage or other and many others besides!
Because we would like our book to be useful both as a teaching and as a research aid, we decided that a reasonably detailed solutions manual would have a role to play. We hope that most of the answers are informative and that some of them are interesting and even new. Some of the examples took their inspiration from research papers which we were unable to cover in detail in the main text. In some cases, and undoubtedly with the benefit of hindsight, we are able to supply different and possibly nicer solutions to the problems studied in this literature.
