Ebook: Control Systems Theory with Engineering Applications

Dynamics systems (living organisms, electromechanical and industrial systems, chemical and technological processes, market and ecology, and so forth) can be considered and analyzed using information and systems theories. For example, adaptive human behavior can be studied using automatic feedback control. As an illustrative example, the driver controls a car changing the speed and steer­ ing wheels using incoming information, such as traffic and road conditions. This book focuses on the most important and manageable topics in applied multivariable control with application to a wide class of electromechanical dynamic systems. A large spectrum of systems, familiar to electrical, mechanical, and aerospace stu­ dents, engineers, and scholars, are thoroughly studied to build the bridge between theory and practice as well as to illustrate the practical application of control theory through illustrative examples. It is the author's goal to write a book that can be used to teach undergraduate and graduate classes in automatic control and nonlin­ ear control at electrical, mechanical, and aerospace engineering departments. The book is also addressed to engineers and scholars, and the examples considered allow one to implement the theory in a great variety of industrial systems. The main purpose of this book is to help the reader grasp the nature and significance of multivariable control.

Control Systems Theory with Engineering Applications uses modern concepts of control systems theory to provide an accessible text for the most important aspects in linear and nonlinear multivariable systems.  This book presents well-defined theoretical base with step-by-step instruction on how to apply it by thoroughly studying a great number of practical real world problems and using numerous examples.

The book gives basic introductory theory relating to the linear state space concept.  It provides the reader with the necessary background needed to comprehend the principles and models presented throughout the remaining portions of the book.  The methods and applications presented include a variety of relevant topics selected for their insight and pedagogical effectiveness.

 Topics:

* A vast range of worked-out examples and qualitative illustrations.

* Mathematical model developments including Newtonian Mechanics and Lagrange Equations of Motion

* Analysis, identification and control of linear and nonlinear dynamic systems

* Practical engineering examples including dynamic modeling in MATLAB and SIMULINK

* Theory and applications of multivariable control

* Constrained optimization of continuos and discrete time systems.

Control Systems Theory with Engineering Applications is an exceptionally complete and accessible text/reference for graduates and professionals in automatic control and nonlinear control.  It is an ideal resource to bridge the gap between theory and practice for students and engineers working in the fields of electrical, mechanical and aerospace engineering.
