Podcast Insights
Content Themes
The podcast focuses on a range of advanced topics within control theory, including geometric control, fractional order systems, aircraft control, and rehabilitation applications. Episodes dive into specific areas such as Boolean control using state-space approaches, anti-windup techniques in aircraft systems, and the application of iterative learning control in stroke rehabilitation.
