Features: This book starts from the perspective of engineering needs and practical problems to explain the design, modeling, construction, debugging, and troubleshooting of automatic control systems. The book is divided into three parts, totaling 18 chapters. Part 1: Control Principles, introducing frequency domain analysis, control system debugging, delays in digital controllers, z-domain analysis, controllers, disturbance response, feedforward, filters in control systems, and observers in control systems. Part 2: Modeling, covering time-domain and frequency-domain modeling methods, time-varying and nonlinear systems, and the seven-step method for control system modeling. Part 3: Motion Control, discussing encoders and resolvers, electronic servo motors and drive basics, compliance and resonance, position control loops, and Luenberger observers in motion control. The book also provides a PC-based single-machine graphical simulation environment, VisualModelQ, where readers can perform graphical modeling and run various experiments related to control systems.
