A novel control design approach for general nonlinear systems is presented in this paper. The approach is based on the identification of a polynomial model of the system to control and on the on-line inversion of this model. An efficient…
We say that a control system is locally controllable if the attainable set from any state $x$ contains an open neighborhood of $x$, while it is controllable if the attainable set from any state is the entire state manifold. We show in this…
