TC 2.3. Non-Linear Control Systems

Welcome Message from the Chair

Welcome to the official TC2.3 website. TC2.3 is the IFAC Technical Committee on Non-linear Control Systems.

Non-linear control systems have gained importance in many industrial areas and research has undergone significant developments recently. There are significant challenges in various fields of nonlinear control. The broad non-linear control community address these challenges with its focus on latest developments in theory and applications as well as related areas of research and engineering.

The main activity sponsored by this TC is the IFAC NOLCOS Symposium. The IFAC NOLCOS symposium is a continuing series of symposia that were previously held in Capri (I) 1988, Bordeaux (F) 1992, Lake Tahoe (USA) 1995, Enschede (NL) 1998, Saint-Petersburg (RUS) 2001, Stuttgart (DE) 2004, and Pretoria (ZA) 2007. The immediate next one will be held in Bologna – Italy on September 01-03 2010 (http://www.nolcos2010.unibo.it/)

Acknowledged as the major international gathering of leading experts in industry and academia in the field of nonlinear control, NOLCOS aims at strengthening contacts between academia and industry to build up new networks and cultivate existing relations. High-level speakers will present the global spectrum of nonlinear control systems, state-of-the-art applications and developing directions.
