Ebook: Dynamical System Models

The aim of this book is to give a complete, self-contained treatment
of all the types of deterministic dynamical system model which are
currently used by engineers and applied mathematicians in the fields
of automatic control, systems engineering, network analysis and feed-
back system theory. Dynamical system models have been grouped
into four types: transform models, Hamiltonian models, network
models, and state models. Each specific type of model is described in
a single chapter which is self-contained, when taken together with the
basic physical and mathematical background provided in the first two
chapters. No particular significance is therefore attached to the order
in which Chapters Three to Six are presented. For each type of model
discussed, all the definitions and proofs required are given in the text.
Those mathematical results from the theory of linear vector spaces and
matrix algebra which are repeatedly used in the later chapters have all
been collected into Chapter Two for reference purposes.
