| | This volume comprises research papers contributed by expert authors in dynamics and control and is dedicated to Professor A.V.Balakrishnan, University of California. Professor Balakrishnan's research interests include laser beam distortion in atmospheric turbulence, control design for smart structures and flight systems applications of adaptive control. This volume is published in recognition of his significant contribution to these areas of research. The volume explores many new ideas, results and directions in the rapidly growing field of aviation and aerospace,encompassing a wide range of topics in rotorcraft dynamics, stabilization of unstable aircraft, spacecraft and satellite dynamics and control, missile auto-pilot and guidance design, hybrid systems dynamics and control,structural and acoustic modelling. The volume is a valuable source of reference for graduate students and scientific workers in universities and industry.
