Modern Control Systems
- Book Review, by Richard C. Dorf

From Book News, Inc.
Written for a senior-level course, this engineering textbook presents the concepts of feedback control system theory as they have been developed in the frequency and time domains, discussing such topics as robust control systems, state variable models, computer control systems, internal model control, and robust PID controllers. The tenth edition offers Matlab files and Simulink simulations on a companion web site.Copyright © 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Book Description
Written to be equally useful for all engineering disciplines, this book is organized around the concept of control systems theory as it has been developed in the frequency and time domains. It provides coverage of classical control employing root locus design, frequency and response design using Bode and Nyquist plots. It also covers modern control methods based on state variable models including pole placement design techniques with full-state feedback controllers and full-state observers. The book covers several important topics including robust control systems and system sensitivity, state variable models, controllability and observability, computer control systems, internal model control, robust PID controllers, and computer-aided design and analysis. For all types of engineers who are interested in a solid introduction to control systems.

- Book Reviews, by Richard C. Dorf

Modern Control Systems

ANNOTATION

This bestselling text, renowned for its practical applications and design problems, has been revised to make greater use of MATLAB integration, and features a new chapter on digital controls. The book includes more practical applications and contexts than any other book in the field.

FROM THE PUBLISHER

For more than twenty years, Modern Control Systems has set the standard of excellence for undergraduate control systems textbooks. It has remained a bestseller because Richard Dorf and Robert Bishop have been able to take complex control theory and make it exciting and accessible to students. The book presents a control engineering methodology that, while based on mathematical fundamentals, stresses physical system modeling and practical control system designs with realistic system specifications.
