Features: This textbook is a revised version based on the previous edition of "Fundamentals of Control Engineering" by Dong Jingxin and Zhao Changde, incorporating recent developments in related fields. It primarily targets undergraduate students in mechanical, instrumentation, and other non-control disciplines. It has been included in the National "Fifteenth Five-Year" Plan for General Higher Education Textbooks and the Beijing Higher Education Excellent Textbook Project. The main content includes: dynamic mathematical models of control systems, time-domain transient response analysis, root locus method, non-linear problems in control systems, computer control systems, and the application of MATLAB software tools in control system analysis and synthesis. The textbook emphasizes mechanical motion as the primary control object, providing detailed introductions to its mathematical models and analysis and synthesis methods. It focuses on establishing fundamental concepts and clarifying basic methods for solving electromechanical control problems, while simplifying or omitting rigorous mathematical derivations that are distant from or overly complex for electromechanical engineering. Numerous examples and exercises have been introduced and compiled to facilitate self-study. The textbook incorporates relevant new technologies and analytical methods in electromechatronics, making it a valuable reference for professionals in related fields. Additionally, to complement the textbook, multimedia lecture CDs for "Fundamentals of Control Engineering" and solution CDs for basic exercises have been produced for use as supplementary materials.
