This item has been replaced by Feedback Control of Dynamic Systems, 6/E.

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.

NEW - An early, understandable introduction to Digital Control (Ch. 4)—Taught via examples in Chs. 5, 6, and 7.
- Shows students how control systems are being implemented in most cases today. Shows instructors a path to teaching the modern implementation at an undergraduate level course.

NEW - Closer MATLAB/SIMULINK integration throughout— Illustrates how calculations are made as the concepts are introduced.
- Teaches students how to carry out computer aided design. Offers instructors support for computer based homework.

NEW - Improved chapter on Dynamic Response.
- Provides students with more physical examples and a clearer presentation of stability.

NEW - More detailed examples for Internal Model Principle—In Ch. 7.
- Enhanced instruction of important concept.

NEW - Added and revised problems.
- Offers students more of an opportunity to apply their knowledge of learned concepts.

NEW - Chapter-end study problems—Includes answers at the back of the book.
- Enables students to test their comprehension of each chapter.

An in-depth, comprehensive treatment—Not found in other texts.
- Serves students with a bridge to more advanced study, an excellent reference for later use in their careers. Gives instructors extensive support for topics to be covered.

Comprehensive case studies—Illustrates real-world problems and applies techniques from earlier chapters.
- Brings together the classical and state-space techniques with discussions of the relative strengths and their role in design.

Extensive examples throughout.
- Promotes student learning and comprehension, and helps make the material easier for instructors to teach.
