An up-to-date text designed for undergraduate courses in control systems engineering and principles of automatic controls. Focuses on design and implementation rather than just the mathematics of control systems. Using a balanced approach, the text presents a unified, energy-based approach to modeling; covers analysis techniques for the models presented; and offers a detailed study of digital control and the implementation of digital controllers. Includes examples and homework problems.
Everything you want to know about control system engineeringfrom basic mechanical principles to complex (advanced) multiple orderdifferential equations, PID controls, etc. I took two Dr. Palm's classes as an undergrad - (1) Control System Engineering and (2) Computer Control For Mecahanical Systems. Both courses used this textbook. I still use this book today.
