Nonlinear control for a diesel engine: A CLF-based approach
International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science, 2014 In this paper, we propose a control Lyapunov function based on a nonlinear controller for a turbocharged diesel engine. A model-based approach is used which predicts the experimentally observed engine performance for a biodiesel.
