Synopsis

Applied Control System Design examines several methods for building up systems models based on real experimental data from typical industrial processes and incorporating system identification techniques. The text takes a comparative approach to the models derived in this way judging their suitability for use in different systems and under different operational circumstances. A broad spectrum of control methods including various forms of filtering, feedback and feedforward control is applied to the models and the guidelines derived from the closed-loop responses are then composed into a concrete self-tested recipe to serve as a check-list for industrial engineers or control designers. System identification and control design are given equal weight in model derivation and testing to reflect their equality of importance in the proper design and optimization of high-performance control systems.
Readers' assimilation of the material discussed is assisted by the provision of problems and examples. Most of these exercises use MATLAB ® to make computation and visualization more straightforward.
Applied Control System Design will be of interest to academic researchers for its comparison of different systems models and their response to different control methods and will assist graduate students in learning the practical necessities of advanced control system design. The consistent reference to real systems coupled with self-learning tools will assist control practitioners who wish to keep up to date with the latest control design ideas.

MEDIA REVIEWS

From the reviews:

"This book provides a thorough `guided tour' of the various control design techniques applied to a variety of real world systems. ... the book comes with not only numerous illustrative examples throughout the book, but also questions and MATLAB problems for some chapters which attracts graduate students and researchers not only for self-reading but also for use as a text book for advanced graduate students in disciplines such as electrical, mechanical, aerospace, and chemical engineering."
