Nonsmooth Lyapunov Analysis in Finite and Infinite Dimensions / Communications and Control Engineering (PDF)

Yury Orlov received his M.S. degree from the Mechanical-Mathematical Faculty of Moscow State University, in 1979, the Ph.D. degree in Physics and Mathematics from the Institute of Control Science, Moscow, in 1984, and the Dr.Sc. degree also in Physics and Mathematics from Moscow Aviation Institute, in 1990. He started his scientific career in the Institute of Control Science in 1979 and since 1993, he has been a Full Professor of the Electronics and Telecommunication Department, Scientific Research and Advanced Studies Center of Ensenada, Mexico. During the scientific career he shared visiting/temporal professor positions in Moscow Aviation Institute, CESAME (Catholic University in Louvain, Belgium), Ecole Central de Lille (France), Robotics Laboratory of Versalle University (France), INRIA (Grenoble, France), IRCCYN (University of Nantes, France), University of Angers (France), University of Cagliari (Italy), University of Kent (UK), and Lund University (Sweden). The research interests include mathematical methods in control, analysis and synthesis of nonlinear, nonsmooth, discontinuous, time delay, distributed parameter systems, and applications to electromechanical systems. He has authored and co-authored about 250 journal and conference papers in the above areas as well as four monographs, including the recent ones called Discontinuous Systems-Lyapunov Analysis and Robust Synthesis under Uncertainty Conditions (Springer Communications & Control Engineering series, 2009) and Advanced H-infinity Control - Towards Nonsmooth Theory Applications (Birkhauser, Systems & Control: Foundations & Applications series, 2014).
