Features: This textbook is written for senior undergraduate students in engineering. It can serve as the first course textbook in the field of control systems. The book comprehensively discusses the analysis and research methods of continuous control systems, including the Laplace transform of common time functions and basic Laplace transform theorems, mathematical models of dynamic systems, transient response analysis of first-order and second-order systems, basic control actions of industrial automatic controllers (such as pneumatic, hydraulic, and electronic controllers), root locus analysis, frequency response analysis of control systems, basic and modified PID control, and techniques for design and compensation using frequency response methods. The book also covers state-space analysis of control systems, including controllability and observability, as well as state-space analysis methods for control systems. All computational problems in the book are solved using MATLAB. This book is suitable for senior undergraduate and graduate students in engineering, engineering technicians, and computer developers.
