Modeling, Analysis, and Control of Dynamic Systems

by William J. Palm III

William J. Palm has revised Modeling, Analysis, and Control of Dynamic Systems , an introduction to dynamic systems and control. The first six chapters cover modeling and analysis techniques, and treat mechanical, electrical, fluid, and thermal systems. Transfer functions, frequency response, and Laplace-transform solution of differential equations are also covered. The last five chapters cover the fundamentals and applications of control systems, classical methods for control system design, based on the root locus and frequency response plots; and modern design techniques based on state space methods. Optional sections at the end of each chapter introduce Matlab commands and applications relevant to the chapter's topics. Four appendices summarize Fourier series, Mason's rule, the Routh array, units, and physical constants.

[Yousseif Abdellatif · Rating 4 out of 5]

The vibe of Modeling, Analysis, and Control of Dynamic Systems was completely off for me at first, like a joke that everybody else got. Then William J. Palm III lets one character, a crabby old lighthouse keeper, take over the story, and it's like someone flipped a switch. The scene where he refuses to leave during a storm is oddly moving. It's a lot of talk and not a lot of action. For readers who like cranky characters with hidden soft spots. Skip it if you need the pace to move.
