• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Linear State-Space Control Systems introduces senior-level undergraduate and first-year graduate students to the fundamentals of state-space methods in the analysis and design of linear control systems. The course is a mainstream offering in both electrical and mechanical engineering programs and provides a basis for advanced graduate courses in control theory (optimal control) and a comprehensive overview, with an emphasis on practical aspects, for students specializing in other areas. The book blends readability and accessibility common to undergraduate control systems texts with the mathematical rigor necessary to form a solid theoretical foundation. Appendices cover linear algebra and provide a Matlab overview and files.

Master the theory and practice of linear state-space control systems design

With a strong emphasis on practical aspects, here is a comprehensive introduction to state-space methods for the analysis and design of linear control systems, ideal for practicing engineers and researchers as well as students preparing for advanced study in systems and control theory.

Beginning with a concise introduction to state-space methods, Linear State-Space Control Systems provides readers with a solid foundation in linear systems and control theory, all grounded in the real world by examples and exercises taken from practical applications. A strength of the text is its rigorous mathematical treatment of the fundamental concepts and theoretical results, supported by a chapter-by-chapter tutorial on the use of the popular software package MATLAB and the associated Control Systems Toolbox for computer-aided control system analysis and design.

Chapters discuss:
_ State-space fundamentals
_ Controllability
_ Observability
_ Minimal Realizations
_ Stability
_ The design of linear state feedback control laws
_ Observers and observer-based feedback control laws
_ Optimal control

Highly readable and accessible, this unique combination of control theory and practical applications will bring both students (advanced undergraduates and graduate students) and practicing professionals up to speed on a field that is seeing growing importance in engineering today.
