Dynamic Systems: Modeling, Simulation, and Control

Craig Kluever ‘s Dynamic Systems: Modeling, Simulation, and Control highlights essential topics such as analysis, design, and control of physical engineering systems, often composed of interacting mechanical, electrical and fluid subsystem components. The major topics covered in this text include mathematical modeling, system-response analysis, and an introduction to feedback control systems. Dynamic Systems integrates an early introduction to numerical simulation using MATLAB®’s Simulink for integrated systems. Simulink® and MATLAB® tutorials for both software programs will also be provided. The author’s text also has a strong emphasis on real-world case studies. 

Craig A. Kluever is C. W. LaPierre Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, University of Missouri-Columbia, USA. He has industry experience as an aerospace engineer on the Space Shuttle program and has performed extensive research at the University of Missouri in collaboration with NASA involving trajectory optimization, space mission design, entry flight mechanics, and guidance and control of aerospace vehicles.
