Dear Colleagues,
The 42nd China Control Conference (CCC2023) will be held in Tianjin on 24–26 July 2023. The China Control Conference, initiated by the Professional Committee of Control Theory (TCCT) of the Chinese Society of Automation, has become an international academic conference in the field of control theory and technology. To promote the rapid development of modern industry and manufacturing, automatic control technologies are applied to various fields by perception, decision-making, optimization, and control, to make industrial production more safe and efficient, save manpower and costs, etc. Moreover, theoretical analysis, experimental verification, and practical applications are indispensable parts of engineering, mechatronics, robotics, etc.
This Special Issue of Machines invites innovative research papers submitted to CCC 2023 and some related original work, to explore solutions to the existing problems of mechanical systems together. We believe that this Special Issue will contribute to a practical and comprehensive forum for exchanging novel research ideas or empirical practices. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
Nonlinear system and control;Stability and stabilization;System modeling and identification;Hybrid system and discrete event dynamic system;Optimal control;Robust control;Adaptive control and learning control;Fuzzy system and fuzzy control;Predictive control;Motion control;Fault diagnosis and fault-tolerant control;Multi-agent system and distributed control;New energy, energy conservation, and environmental protection control;Vehicle and traffic system control;Pattern recognition, machine vision, and image processing.You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Systems.
