Adaptive Control
Adaptive control is the control method used by a controller which must adapt to a controlled system with parameters which vary, or are initially uncertain. For example, as an aircraft flies, its mass will slowly decrease as a result of fuel consumption; a control law is needed that adapts itself to such changing conditions.

Narrator: In past times of crisis, we depended more on who we considered to be experts. These days, rightly or wrongly, we have become more cynical about experts and their expert analysis and advice.
