Book Description

August 1, 2001
"Continuous and Discrete Control Systems: Modeling, Identification, Design and Implementation", is an exciting new textbook from John Dorsey of the Georgia Institute of Technology. The book takes the reader through the entire design process and includes three case studies of actual systems that emphasize the experimental aspects of control design. Design is introduced early in the book via root locus analysis. A broad range of topics is covered including an introduction to modern robust control and state space analysis. The book is intended for a variety of 1-semester controls courses. The author has tried to bring the reader as close to a real laboratory experience as possible by walking the reader through each step of the design process: modeling, identification, design and especially implementation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very refreshing introduction to control, July 24, 2007
By 
Kishore "Kishore" (Pocatello, ID, USA) - See all my reviews
Control systems engineering is a very important area of study not only for systems engineers but also for analog and digital designers of chips, MEMS designers, and almost every other electrical/mechanical design area. This book provides a very methodical development of control system modelling and design. It emphasizes more on concepts rather than complex mathematics to explain a design problem. I've read a few very good books on control systems and I found this one easiest to understand and fall back on whenever I require a refresher course in transforms, root locus analysis and bode analysis(which are very essential for analog design). I have no idea why more people did not get hooked to this book. This was used in a senior level control systems course by a professor when I was in school and I have been thankful to him ever since.
