Matlab Tools for Control System Analysis and Design/Book and Disk (The Matlab Curriculum) [Paperback]

Duane C. Hanselman (Author), B. C. Kuo (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: May 1995 | Series: The Matlab Curriculum

This book/disk package is designed specifically for those learning MATLAB and control systems for the first time. It provides a set of ready-to-use M-files - minimizing the amount of previous MATLAB knowledge required, thus allowing students to focus on solving the control system problems at hand. This edition provides two CSAD toolboxes (on disk) - one compatible with MATLAB version 4, and one compatible with MATLAB version 3.5, also streamlining the presentation of theory to focus on the software and its use. Software features include: an improved "pmake" function; replaced "tddesign" and " fddesign" functions with "pidesign" and "lldesign"; adds state-variable design options to "svdesign"; revises frequency domain plotting functions "bplot, mvpplot," and "plrplot" to automatically choose an appropriate frequency range for plots; improves user input of transfer functions and state variable descriptions; adds a powerful interpolation menu item; revises the partial fraction expansion function "pfe" to include more cases; and consolidates zooming in and out in all plotting functions.

From the Back Cover

Key Benefit: This book/software package is designed specifically for those learning MATLAB and control systems for the first time. It provides a set of consistent, convenient, and ready-to-use M-files.Key Topics: Available in both Windows and Macintosh versions. Allows the M-files in the CSAD Toolbox to be applied directly in conjunction with the Student Version of MATLAB. Provides two CSAD Toolboxes (on disk)—one compatible with MATLAB version 4, and one compatible with MATLAB version 3.5. Features menu-driven, user interactive tools—function M- files. Integrates introductory material on the theory of feedback control with programs. Provides numerous examples that show the applications of M-files.
