Traffic Congestion Control by PDE Backstepping

“This book provides a mathematically rigorous framework for the control of congested traffic flow on highways in various contexts. … Through its combination of theory, modeling of various phenomena, and the derived solutions to many important control problems, the text provides a valuable resource for researchers working in control of hyperbolic PDEs, engineers interested in traffic flow applications, and also for both instructors and readers seeking a self-contained and complete textbook on traffic congestion control.” (Christophe Prieur, IEEE Control Systems Magazine, Vol. 44 (3), June, 2024)

“The book is well-organized, with excellent information, great formulas, stunning figures, and references to over 320 papers. The presentation is superb and simple to understand. It will benefit students, researchers, professors, and the general public.” (P. Senthil Kumar, zbMATH 1519.90001, 2023)
