From the Back Cover

The Art of Control Engineering is an essential core text for undergraduate degree courses in control, electrical and electronic, systems and mechanical engineering. Its broad, practical coverage will also be very useful to postgraduate students and practising engineers.

Key Features
  • keeps the mathematical content to a minimum by covering only the essential topics
  • stresses the iterative nature of most designs in order to achieve working systems
  • covers an unprecedented selection of methods and techniques and emphasises their interrelation, enabling its use for introductory to postgraduate study
  • integrates classical, digital, nonlinear and modern control theory in one volume
  • uses a distinctive "layered" approach, enabling easy selection of the required level of material for study
  • includes MATLAB and SIMULINK examples supplemented by files on the internet featuring editable simulations which encourage student experimentation
  • incorporates worked examples throughout which aid comprehension and help explain practical issues
