Robust control of MIMO nonlinear systems with mismatched uncertainty

The problem of the control of multivariable systems in the presence of both modelling and disturbance uncertainties is considered. The technique described is not restricted to linear systems, nor to systems where the uncertainties satisfy matching conditions. Only bounds on the uncertainties are required. As examples of the technique, two practical problems are considered.
