The fuzzy system is used to represent the controller's structure. The stability of the closed loop system is guaranteed through Lyapunov stability analysis by introducing some adaptive rules derived appropriately. Simulation results easily highlight merits of the proposed controller. %K Adaptive Control %K Non-affine Nonlinear Systems %K Large Scale Systems %K Fuzzy Systems %K Nonlinear Observer. %U http://www.ijcee.org/papers/654-N3027.pdf
