  • Feedback Control Problems Using MATLAB  pop
    By Dean K. Frederick, Joe Chow. This short book contains a large number of MATLAB-based problems dealing with the topics covered in a first course on feedback control. The ways in which MATLAB can be used to solve these problems are illustrated by detailed examples that lead the reader through the analytical steps of the solution and in many cases give a script of MATLAB commands. A number of simplified models of "real- world" systems are presented and used in the problems and "what- if" variations...

  • Robust Control: The Parametric Approach
    By S.P. Bhattacharyya / H. Chapellat & L.H. Keel, ISBN 0-13-781576-X This book contains a unified approach to robust stability theory underparameter uncertainty. A systematic use of frequency-domain methods allowedthe authors to combine different types of uncertainty and to link parametricrobust stability with nonlinear perturbations and the result of H-infinitytheory. Basic aspects of control problems such as design, performance,and synthesis, are carefully related to the theory. Examples and exercisesare included.
