Description
Book SynopsisThe definitive guide to control system design
Modern Control System Theory and Design, Second Edition offers themost comprehensive treatment of control systems available today.Its unique text/software combination integrates classical andmodern control system theories, while promoting an interactive,computer-based approach to design solutions. The sheer volume ofpractical examples, as well as the hundreds of illustrations ofcontrol systems from all engineering fields, make this volumeaccessible to students and indispensable for professionalengineers.
This fully updated Second Edition features a new chapter on moderncontrol system design, including state-space design techniques,Ackermann''s formula for pole placement, estimation, robust control,and the H method for control system design. Other notable additionsto this edition are:
* Free MATLAB software containing problem solutions, which can beretrieved from The Mathworks, Inc., anonymous FTP server atftp://ftp.mat
