Product Description
Product Description
For junior/senior level undergraduate and 1st year graduate courses in Control Theory.
This introductory text provides an in-depth, comprehensive treatment of a collection of classical and state-space approaches to control system design—and ties the methods together so that a designer is able to pick the method that best fits the problem at hand. It includes case studies and comprehensive examples with close integration of MATLAB throughout the book.
From the Back Cover
The third edition of this bestselling textbook on undergraduate controls continues to develop students' insight into control problems and methods for solving them. Because of the importance of design problems and their motivational effect on students, the authors emphasize design in addition to analysis techniques throughout the text. The book demonstrates the unifying principles behind numerous individual design techniques to assist students in creating their own problem-solving "toolbox." The latest edition of Feedback Control of Dynamic Systems reflects many of the recent advances in control system design including balanced coverage of frequency response and state space topics and an introduction to digital control. Computer exercise s have been added to allow the student to explore computer-aided problem-solving methods. The text contains numerous pedagogical improvements to help students organize and review the information in the book such as boxed highlights, margin notes, and a synopsis of design aids.
The authors recognize that feedback control is an interdisciplinary field with applications in almost every engineering discipline. The text presents examples and technologies from a variety of sources to show students the range and power of the subject. The second edition of Feedback Control of Dynamic Systems was the 1991 winner of the IFAC Control Engineering Textbook Prize.
Back Cover
Feedback Control of Dynamic Systems, Third Edition, retains its balanced coverage of modern and classical topics, the early incorporation of design aspects, and its discussion of analysis techniques; all hallmark features that established it as the authoritative controls text. Due to instructor demand, the Third Edition now contains expanded coverage of dynamics modeling and Laplace transform topics.

Format:Hardcover
This book gives more explanation about the concepts of control systems. It differs from many other books in that it doesn't focus on how to mathematically solve problems (without or very little explanation of what/why they are trying to solve for) but systematically introduces how to look at the problems from control system perspectives. Reading this book gave me an intuitive understanding of the control systems. Also, the book is well organized and very enjoyable reading.

Format:Paperback
This book assumes a certain knowledge in the subject field and does not attempt to cover these pre-requisites. A good basic knowledge of dynamical systems is essential (as the author(s) themselves point out). However it's depth into feedback is excellent and well aimed at university students begining a course in feedback control.

Format:Hardcover
The writing is mediocre. It misses on mechanical-electrical analysis analogs, such as the mathematical "equality" between the analysis of springs and inductors.
The Appendix includes useful reviews of complex calculus, but it does NOT have answer sets.

Vague, lacking structure
Vague, poor/loose structure, plenty of discussion but fails to teach. There are excellent alternatives on control systems, most notably Norman Nise (currently in 5th ed. Read more

Good Book for References....
Good in-depth material on concepts but not enough examples and explanations on how the author approach in solving problems.
