J. Karl Hedrick (born 1944) is an American control
theorist and a Professor in the Department of
Mechanical Engineering at the University of California,
Berkeley. He has made seminal contributions in
nonlinear control and estimation. Prior to joining the
faculty at the University of California, Berkeley he was a
professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology
from 1974 to 1988. Hedrick received a bachelor's degree in
Engineering Mechanics from the University of Michigan
(1966) and a M.S. and Ph.D from Stanford University
(1970, 1971). Hedrick is the head of the Vehicle Dynamics
Laboratory at UC Berkeley.
In 2006, he was awarded the Rufus Oldenburger Medal
from the American Society of Mechanical Engineers.

Systems, 1999]
#Relative degree = #State = 6
So, it has no zero dynamics

Concluding Remarks
A new method of defining states was presented for transform
a nonlinear mismatched system to the strict feedback form
Two controller techniques were designed
Feedback linearization (FL) with dynamic extension
Dynamic surface control (DSC)
In the disturbance-free case,
both FL & DSC performed tracking a desired trajectory
In the present of disturbances,
the DSC was better to reject it than the FL
Tracking performance of the DSC can be designed
by using the 1st order filter
However, more control effort required for DSC
