Control Systems: An Introduction

ISBN-13: 9783030984441 / Angielski / Twarda / 2022

Dr. D. Sundararajan

Opis

This textbook is designed for an introductory, one-semester course in Control Systems for undergraduates and graduates in various engineering departments, such as electrical, mechanical, aerospace, and civil. It is written to be concise, clear, and yet comprehensive to make it easier for the students to learn this important subject with high mathematical complexity. The author emphasizes the physical simulation of systems, making it easier for readers to understand system behavior. The popular MATLAB^® software package is used for programming and simulation. Every new concept is explained with figures and examples for a clear understanding. The simple and clear style of presentation, along with comprehensive coverage, enables students to obtain a solid foundation in the subject and for use in practical applications.
