DESCRIPTION:Traditionally\, high-tech motion systems are controlled by PID
 -control\, despite the fact that these PID designs\, or more generally spe
 aking any linear time-invariant control design\, is subject to fundamental
  performance limitations. At the same time\, it was already observed in th
 e 1950’s that introducing nonlinearities in an otherwise linear control 
 loop can alleviate these limitations and significantly improve system perf
 ormance. In this talk\, I will highlight recent advancements in nonlinear 
 motion control\, both from a theoretical and a practical perspective. I wi
 ll also discuss continuing challenges and on-going and future research tha
 t expedites the use of nonlinear control as an enabler to push performance
  of high-tech systems to the next level. \n\nThe seminar will be held in t
 he JDB Seminar Room\, Department of Engineering\, and online (zoom): https
