Modern Control Systems an Introduction English 2022

Designed for a short course on control systems or as a review of the modern approach for professional engineers, this book provides a lucid introduction to control systems topics. The five chapters, 'state-variable analysis of continuous-time systems,' 'analysis of discrete-time systems,' 'stability analysis of non-linear systems,' 'optimal control,' and 'adaptive control' Have been written to emphasise concepts and provide only the basic mathematical derivations. The standard topics for a modern approach are covered, e. g., eigenvalues, eigenvectors, the Z-Transform, Lyapunov?'s method, controllability, observability, etc. Numerous examples and exercises have been included in the book for self-study. A CD-ROM with applications and third-party software provides practical design techniques and observations of real control systems.
