$122.66

  • Hardcover, paperback or looseleaf edition
  • Affordable rental option for select titles

For senior-level courses in Control Theory, offered by departments of Electrical & Computer Engineering or Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering.

Notable author Katsuhiko Ogata presents the only book available to discuss, in sufficient detail, the details of MATLAB® materials needed to solve many analysis and design problems associated with control systems.

In this new text, Ogata complements a large number of examples with in-depth explanations, encouraging complete understanding of the MATLAB approach to solving problems. The book’s flexible presentation makes it ideal for use as a stand-alone text for those wishing to expand their knowledge of MATLAB; it can also be used in conjunction with a wide range of currently available control textbooks

• Applications emphasis – Encourages students to apply the MATLAB techniques to many analysis and design problems of his/her own.

• Streamlined, focused presentation – Distills the large volume of MATLAB information available to focus on those materials needed to study analysis and design problems of deterministic, continuous-time control systems.

• Conventional control systems – Offers basic MATLAB approaches to analysis and design problems associated with systems such as transient response, root locus, frequency response analyses and designs in chapters 3, 4, and 5.   

• State space formulation – Examines analysis and design problems associated with state space formulation of control systems in Chapter 6.

• Optimization problems – Presents useful MATLAB approaches to solve optimization problems associated with controlsystems in Chapter 7.
