DESCRIPTION:
This book is one of the greatest ever written. This is the best controls book for engineers who are first learning controls. The author has a great step-by-step approach that really simplifies controls for the average student and makes a very complicated subject much easier to learn. The pictures are great too! Especially Figure 1.2!. A Customer said This is an excellent text for an understanding of controls. The book is clearly written. The developmental approach and lucid style of the text reinforces the readers confidence and understanding at every stage. The text is a motivator for acquiring and applying the tools of controls engineering.
Because actual control systems frequently contain nonlinear components, considerable emphasis is given to such components. This book offers coverage of control engineering beginning with discussions of how typical control systems may be represented by block diagrams. New applications for automatic controls are continually being discovered. The applications of control systems cover a very wide range, from the design of precision control devices such as delicate electronic equipment to the design of massive equipment such as that used for the manufacture of steel or other industrial processes. This is accomplished by first demonstrating how to represent each component or part of a system as a si
