New to This Edition
|
- Clearly defined steps for design problems are presented.
- Case studies that use the same system progressively, chapter after chapter, to show the analysis and design process with clarity are presented.
- Skill-assessment exercises are presented at the conclusion of most sections. These exercises are focused on the preceding section and test the student’s ability to perform the analysis and design just discussed. The answers are given, while the complete solution is on the accompanying website.
- Coverage of newer modern control methods is integrated into the chapters, to give instructors flexibility in how to cover this material.
- Numerous in-chapter examples, review questions, and problems are provided.
- Cyber Exploration Laboratory Experiments include tutorials for the student to learn the latest versions of MATLAB, the Control System Toolbox, Simulink ®, the Symbolic Math Toolbox, and MATLAB’s graphical user interface (GUI) tools (the LTI Viewer, the Simulink LTI Viewer, and the SISO Design Tool). MATLAB code is now provided within the chapters to demonstrate computer-aided analysis and design as well as in the appendices.
- Control Solutions formerly offered in the Just Ask platform are now available in WileyPLUS.
- An accompanying Web site provides valuable additional material, such as stand-alone computer applications, electronic files of the text’s computer programs for use with MATLAB, additional appendices, and complete solutions to skill-assessment exercises.
- Experiments using MATLAB, Simulink, and the SISO Design Tool are now available for the student at the at the end of all chapters, except Chapter 1. These experiments can be used to expand the student’s knowledge by performing "what if" experimentation.
- Update to the latest versions of MATLAB (Version 7.4), Simulink ® (Version 6.6)), the Control System Toolbox (Version 8.0) including MATLAB’s graphical user interface (GUI) tools (the LTI Viewer, the Simulink LTI Viewer, and the SISO Design Tool), and the Symbolic Math Toolbox (Version 3.2).
- Chapter 1 has been revised to increase clarity.
- An additional Progressive Analysis and Design Problem has been added.
- 20% new end-of-chapter problems have been added.
