Modeling and Control of Dynamic Spatially Distributed Systems

Capture the complexity of systems that change across space and time with Modeling and Control of Dynamic Spatially Distributed Systems, a rigorous yet accessible guide by Yizhi Wang and Zhong Yang. This authoritative text equips engineers, researchers, and advanced students with the mathematical foundations and practical tools needed to model, analyze, and control distributed parameter systems governed by partial differential equations.

From clear derivations of spatially distributed models and stability theory to modern control strategies and observer design, the book bridges theory and application. Detailed discussions cover numerical approximation methods, system identification for spatial dynamics, and robust control techniques tailored to real-world problems. Illustrative examples and engineering case studies demonstrate how the concepts apply to thermal processes, chemical reactors, environmental systems, smart grids, and large-scale infrastructure—making it highly relevant for control engineering communities across North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region.

Readable yet comprehensive, the text emphasizes problem-solving and implementation: how to transform physical laws into tractable models, design controllers that ensure stability and performance, and validate solutions with simulation. Whether you are developing advanced controllers for industrial plants, modeling environmental transport phenomena, or researching distributed estimation, this volume delivers the theoretical depth and practical insight required for success.

A compelling reference for academic coursework and professional practice alike, Modeling and Control of Dynamic Spatially Distributed Systems is an essential addition to the library of anyone tackling spatially distributed dynamics.
