<mods:abstract>The problem of model predictive control (MPC) under parametric uncertainties for a&#xd;
class of nonlinear systems is addressed. An adaptive identi er is used to estimate the pa-&#xd;
rameters and the state variables simultaneously. The algorithm proposed guarantees the&#xd;
convergence of parameters and the state variables to their true value. The task is posed as&#xd;
an adaptive model predictive control problem in which the controller is required to steer the&#xd;
system to the system setpoint that optimizes a user-speci ed objective function.&#xd;
The technique of adaptive model predictive control is developed for two broad classes of&#xd;
systems. The  rst class of system considered is a class of uncertain nonlinear systems with&#xd;
input to state stability property. Using a generalization of the set-based adaptive estimation&#xd;
technique, the estimates of the parameters and state are updated to guarantee convergence&#xd;
to a neighborhood of their true value.&#xd;
The second involves a method of determining appropriate excitation conditions for nonlin-&#xd;
ear systems. Since the identi cation of the true cost surface is paramount to the success&#xd;
of the integration scheme, novel parameter estimation techniques with better convergence&#xd;
properties are developed. The estimation routine allows exact reconstruction of the systems&#xd;
unknown parameters in  nite-time. The applicability of the identi er to improve upon the&#xd;
performance of existing adaptive controllers is demonstrated. Then, an adaptive nonlinear&#xd;
model predictive controller strategy is integrated to this estimation algorithm in which ro-&#xd;
bustness features are incorporated to account for the e ect of the model uncertainty.&#xd;
To study the practical applicability of the developed method, the estimation of state vari-&#xd;
ables and unknown parameters in a stirred tank process has been performed. The results of&#xd;
the experimental application demonstrate the ability of the proposed techniques to estimate&#xd;
the state variables and parameters of an uncertain practical system.</mods:abstract>
