Modern Control Systems

by Richard C. Dorf, Robert H. Bishop

Developing Problem-Solving Skills Through Integrated Design and Analysis The purpose of Dorf’s Modern Control Systems , Thirteenth Edition is to present the structure of feedback control theory and to provide a sequence of exciting discoveries. The book demonstrates various real-world, global engineering problems while touching on evolving design strategies like green technology. Some of the themes at-hand include climate change, clean water, sustainability, waste management, emissions reduction, and minimizing energy. Throughout the text, the reader applies theory to the design and analysis of control systems. The Thirteenth Edition continues to explore the role of and need for automated and precise control systems in green engineering. Key examples of green engineering, such as wind turbine control and the modeling of a photovoltaic generator to achieve maximum power delivery, are discussed in detail. The text is organized around the concept of control systems theory in the context of frequency and time domains. Written to be equally useful for all engineering disciplines, it covers topics such as classical control, employing root locus design, frequency and response design using Bode and Nyquist plots.

Mondern Control Systems provides a basic introduction to classical control systems and methods. The topics covered include: open-loop systems, closed-loop feedback systems, transfer functions, stabilitiy analysis (absolute and relative stability), Root Locus methods, Routh-Huritz stability criterion, frequency and time domain responses, and Bode and Nyquist plots. In addition to the aforementioned items, the book devotes a chapter to the modern state variable method of control systems. The book also provides some introductory material on the evolution of feedback control systems.

good book

Bad explaining, but good Advanced and Design Problems.

[Shuhada Karim · Rating 4 out of 5]

A good book in explaining about a modern control.
But for who do not have basic about control system need to at least refer others book before proceed
with this book.

[Joshua Adorno Rivera · Rating 3 out of 5]

The author jam packs many concepts and examples with a dissertation on theory rather than general concepts and good step by step explanations. Look to control systems by Nise instead.

Good book in Control systems

[Олег · Rating 5 out of 5]

I rarely rate professional books here but this one is really brilliant. Almost everytime I pick up a section in spare time I'll find some new understandings there for me.

This book is ideal for beginners! I hope the next editions will have even more examples in matlab.
