This chapter provides a very brief introduction to many areas in nonlinear systems theory and includes some of the basic mathematical modelling results that are needed later. Common static nonlinear functions are first described that are often used as part of a simple nonlinear system model. Dynamic nonlinear systems are introduced and methods of approximating nonlinear systems such as linearizationLinearization methods, linear parameter-varying systemsLinear Parameter-Varying systems and state-dependent system models. The review of nonlinear controlNonlinear control design methods is not meant to be exhaustive but it does provide a brief introduction to some of the most popular methods that are referred in later chapters. Hybrid systemsHybrid systems and nonlinear system identificationSystem identification methods are topics that are covered briefly since they are of growing importance in applications and relate to some of the model structures employed later. This chapter can be skipped and just used for reference purposes for those wishing to move quickly to the more practical topics in control systems design.
