Abstract

In this work we extend our previous two-blocks decomposition approach for the design of nonlinear extension of linear series compensators, to the design of a nonlinear extension of a typical combination of linear series and parallel compensators for nth order nonlinear dynamical control systems. This particular extension shows how the two-block decomposition approach would allow to design nonlinear extensions of virtually any combination of compensators. We illustrate the results by applying them to a model of the centrifugal pendulum in Watt’s governor.
