Introduction to Feedback Control

what Is Often Referred To As Industrial Mathematics Is Becoming A More Important Focus Of Applied Mathematics. An Increased Interest In Undergraduate Control Theory Courses For Mathematics Students Is Part Of This Trend. This Is Due To The Fact That Control Theory Is Both Quite Mathematical And Very Important In Applications. Introduction To Feedback Control Provides A Rigorous Introduction To Input/output, Controller Design For Linear Systems To Junior/senior Level Engineering And Mathematics Students. All Explanations And Most Examples Are Single-input, Single-output For Ease Of Exposition. The Student Is Assumed To Have Knowledge Of Linear Ordinary Differential Equations And Complex Variables.

written Specifically For The Undergraduate Mathematics Student Concise And Clear Examples That Illustrate Theory Author Is Faculty Member At University Of Waterloo; The Largest Mathematics Department In The World Contains Exercises Includes Matlab

an Introductory Text, Aimed At Graduate-level Engineering And Mathematics Students, On Feedback Control In Engineering Systems. Morris (u. Of Waterloo, Canada) Moves From Elementary Systems Theory To Advanced Multivariable Controls, Covering Stability, Basic Loopshaping, Basic State Feedback And Estimation, Controller Parametrization, And Generalized Plants Along The Way. A Common Thread In The Book Is The Trade-off Between Performance And Maintaining Stability In The Presence Of System Uncertainty. Morris Uses Both Time Domain And Frequency Domain Methods Of System Description. For Ease Of Description, Only Linear Systems Are Considered And All Explanation Are Single-input And Single-output.
