http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0898713196/104-1893931-3835923?v=glance&n=283155
By Yurii Nesterov & Arkadi Nemirovskii, ISBN 0-89871-319-6 Written for users interested in optimization, this text presents the generaltheory of interior-point polynomial-time methods for convex programming.The authors try to demonstrate that all known polynomial-time interior-pointmethods can be explained on a general theory basis, and hence extendedinto a wide variety of nonlinear convex problems. This is shown by developingnew polynomial time interior-point methods for many important classesof problems. The theory presented in the text, including applicationsin control system design, are implemented in the LMI Control Toolbox developedby Pascal Gahinet, Arkadi Nemirovskii, Alan J. Laub, and Mahmoud Chilali.The toolbox may be purchased from The MathWorks.

http://www.mathworks.com/support/books/book1707.jsp?category=7&language=-1
Designed for someone learning dynamics for the first time or for an experienced engineer who uses the tools infrequently, this text bridges the gap between introductory vibration courses and techniques used in actual practice. The book provides an understanding of modal analysis, from which the total response of a system can be constructed. It also provides the know-how to take the results of large dynamic finite element models and build small MATLAB state-space models. Each chapter provides the background theory to support its example, and each chapter contains both a closed-form solution to the problem and detailed MATLAB code for solving the problem, that also uses functions from the Control System Toolbox. In addition, Simulink is used for several examples throughout the book but is not required.
