Not familiar enough with Adaptive Control to know much about that particular technique, and it sounds like the prof has a special variation on it. There are lots of different techniques that could apply to rockets, which is why I'd imagine they're popular subjects for example problems in Adaptive Control. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_control Once it becomes time to get serious about rocket control, it might be good to chat about controls with Prof. Tymerski in EE. Since Tymerski deals mostly with DC-DC converters and is chronically short on free time, it might be even better to chat with some profs in Mechanical Engineering; ME (and especially robotics) works with a lot of practical, real-world control problems. _______________________________________________ psas-avionics mailing list psas-avionics@lists.psas.pdx.edu http://lists.psas.pdx.edu/mailman/listinfo/psas-avionics
