Apply a state-space approach to modern control system analysis and design Written by an expert in the field, this concise textbook offers hands-on coverage of modern control system engineering. Modern Control: State-Space Analysis and Design Methods features start-to-finish design projects as well as online snippets of MATLAB code with simulations. The essential mathematics are presented along with fully worked-out examples in gradually increasing degrees of difficulty. Readers will receive “just-in-time” math background from a comprehensive appendix and get step-by-step descriptions of the latest analysis and design techniques. Coverage includes: • An introduction to control systems • State-space representations • Pole placement via state feedback • State estimators (observers) • Non-minimal canonical forms • Linearization • Lyapunov stability • Linear quadratic regulators (LQR) • Symmetric root locus (SRL) • Kalman filter • Linear quadratic gaussian control (LQG)

Introduction to state-space methods covers feedback control; state-space representation of dynamic systems and dynamics of linear systems; frequency-domain analysis; controllability and observability; shaping the dynamic response; more. 1986 edition.

An introduction to analysis techniques used in the design of linear feedback control systems with emphasis on both classical and matrix methods. This text presents all design methods in a building-block sequence, including a thorough analysis of first- and second-order systems as well as general state space systems.

The book reviews developments in the following fields: state-space theory; complex variable methods in feedback system analysis and design; robustness in variable control system design; design study using the characteristic locus method; inverse Nyquist array design method; nuclear boiler control scheme analysis and design; optimal control; control system design via mathematical programming; multivariable design optimisation; pole assignment; nonlinear systems; DDC system design; robust controller design; distributed parameter system control; and decentralised control.

Linear Control-System Compensation and Design - Modern Control-System Design Using State-Space, Pole Placement, Ackermann's Formula, Estimation, Robust Control, and H8 Techniques - Digital Control-System Analysis and Design - Nonlinear Control-System Design - Introduction to Optimal Control Theory and Its Applications - Control-System Design Examples: Complete Case Studies.

The book blends readability and accessibility common to undergraduate control systems texts with the mathematical rigor necessary to form a solid theoretical foundation. Appendices cover linear algebra and provide a Matlab overivew and files. The reviewers pointed out that this is an ambitious project but one that will pay off because of the lack of good up-to-date textbooks in the area.

The essential introduction to the principles and applications of feedback systems—now fully revised and expanded This textbook covers the mathematics needed to model, analyze, and design feedback systems. Now more user-friendly than ever, this revised and expanded edition of Feedback Systems is a one-volume resource for students and researchers in mathematics and engineering. It has applications across a range of disciplines that utilize feedback in physical, biological, information, and economic systems. Karl Åström and Richard Murray use techniques from physics, computer science, and operations research to introduce control-oriented modeling. They begin with state space tools for analysis and design, including stability of solutions, Lyapunov functions, reachability, state feedback observability, and estimators. The matrix exponential plays a central role in the analysis of linear control systems, allowing a concise development of many of the key concepts for this class of models. Åström and Murray then develop and explain tools in the frequency domain, including transfer functions, Nyquist analysis, PID control, frequency domain design, and robustness. Features a new chapter on design principles and tools, illustrating the types of problems that can be solved using feedback Includes a new chapter on fundamental limits and new material on the Routh-Hurwitz criterion and root locus plots Provides exercises at the end of every chapter Comes with an electronic solutions manual An ideal textbook for undergraduate and graduate students Indispensable for researchers seeking a self-contained resource on control theory

Text for a first course in control systems, revised (1st ed. was 1970) to include new subjects such as the pole placement approach to the design of control systems, design of observers, and computer simulation of control systems. For senior engineering students. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.

Offers unified treatment of conventional and modern continuous and discrete control theory and demonstrates how to apply the theory to realistic control system design problems. Along with linear and nonlinear, digital and optimal control systems, it presents four case studies of actual designs. The majority of solutions contained in the book and the problems at the ends of the chapters were generated using the commercial software package, MATLAB, and is available free to the users of the book by returning a postcard contained with the book to the MathWorks, Inc. This software also contains the following features/utilities created to enhance MATLAB and several of the MathWorks' toolboxes: Tutorial File which contains the essentials necessary to understand the MATLAB interface (other books require additional books for full comprehension), Demonstration m-file which gives the users a feel for the various utilities included, OnLine HELP, Synopsis File which reviews and highlights the features of each chapter.
