Optimal Control of Turbulence

Optimal Control of Turbulence presents a unified treatment of active control of turbulent fields and its role in various disciplines of engineering such as hydrodynamics, combustion and emission control, magnetic fusions, and heat transfer control.

This book provides a thorough mathematical treatment of optimal feedback control of fluid dynamics, covering deterministic, stochastic, and robust H-infinity theory.

It also discusses several methods of reducing the dimension of computation.

Offering an up-to-date exposition of the field, this text contains valuable information for graduate students and researchers in engineering, physics, mathematics, fluid mechanics, and control theory.
