Abstract
Graduate studies in fields of Engineering typically include advanced control theory. In particular, fields of Aerospace, Computer, Electrical, and Mechanical Engineering require introduction of selected topics in nonlinear and optimal control theory too. In turn, these courses enhance both academic and applied research, hence contributing to combined knowledge and technology transfer, in particular if supported by industry as well. This paper reports on such fruitful experiences at our universities through the case of the math-analytical back-stepping and state-feedback control design methodologies. Novel control designs for electrical power systems, employing thyristor controlled series compensation and for autonomous engineering systems, employing power-electronic buck-boos dc-dc converter, have been found. Computer simulation and laboratory experiments have demonstrated high quality.
