About this title

Synopsis

Addresses the major topics in control system technology, designed to help students develop sufficient understanding to operate, maintain, and regulate control systems, as well as permitting students to design and develop basic control systems. The first part presents control system theory. The second addresses controllers and their applications. Schematic diagrams and detailed descriptions of the technology help clarify the sometimes-difficult topics of digital control, digital implementation, and fuzzy logic. Intended for students just beginning their study of control systems, including those in two- to four-year college programs, one-semester freshman university courses, and industry personnel.

From the Back Cover

Finally, a book that fills the gap that other books leave empty! Most other textbooks on this subject were designed for students at the engineering lave! or for advanced students. This book was written for students just beginning their study of control systems. It is suitable for:

• Two- to four-year college programs requiring an in-depth understanding of control systems.
• A one-semester university course at freshman level.
• Industry personnel interested in developing a greater understanding of control principles.

An attempt has been made to cover the major topics in control system technology. This book will help students to develop sufficient understanding to operate, maintain, and regulate control systems. At the same time, it will permit students to design and develop basic control systems.

The book consists of two major sections. Part I covers control system theory, while Part II covers controllers and their applications. Schematic diagrams and in-depth descriptions of the technology help students comprehend the sometimes difficult topics of digital control, digital implementation and fuzzy logic, and chapter questions help to reinforce the ideas presented in each chapter.

An Instructor's Manual (ISBN: 0-13-092866-6) is available to all instructors using the book to teach a course.
