Features

  • "Develops mathematical models for a variety dynamical systems, including mechanical, electrical, mechatronic, thermal, fluid, and hydraulic
  • "Illustrates how system models are used to study the system behavior and response, and how to use the models to effect system control
  • "Includes numerous figures and worked examples that demonstrate the application of concepts to different fields of engineering
  • "Uses MATLABâ„¢ extensively to solidify a thorough understanding of computer implementation of control systems
  • "Employs "just in time" learning-introduces and develops concepts as they become relevant
  • "Contains all the relevant principles-standard through advanced-in one book
  • Summary

    Written to inspire and cultivate the ability to design and analyze feasible control algorithms for a wide range of engineering applications, this comprehensive text covers the theoretical and practical principles involved in the design and analysis of control systems. From the development of the mathematical models for dynamic systems, the author shows how they are used to obtain system response and facilitate control, then addresses advanced topics, such as digital control systems, adaptive and robust control, and nonlinear control systems.
