The platforms considered in this work-including cable-driven parallel robots, underactuated manipulators, soft continuum arms, industrial manipulators, teleoperation systems, and bio-inspired swimmers-reflect the diversity of modern robotics and the need for robust, adaptive, and energy-efficient control beyond classical linear paradigms. Collectively, these contributions highlight the maturation of nonlinear and adaptive control from theoretical research into practical, application-ready methodologies. They illustrate how modern control design-through parameter estimation, optimization, sliding-mode control, Lyapunov methods, and metaheuristic tuning-can address real-world challenges in reconfigurable robots, underactuated systems, soft manipulators, energy-efficient motion, human-robot interaction, teleoperation under delays, and dynamic task execution. At the same time, they underscore ongoing challenges: achieving rapid adaptation without compromising stability, balancing precision with transient response, ensuring safe human-robot interaction, reducing computational load for real-time control, and integrating control with higher-level planning and perception.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 228\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.75 x 9.61 x 6.69 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 14, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46374310346887,"sku":"9783725874248","price":109.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/bxml0bcnrG9783725874248.webp?v=1793357462","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/adaptive-and-nonlinear-control-of-robotics-hardcover","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
