Textbook about the use of digital computers in the real-time control of dynamic systems such as servomechanisms, chemical processes, and vehicles that move over water, land, air, or space. Requires some understanding of the Laplace transform and assumes a first course in linear feedback controls. An
This thick book, when it comes to determining the stability of a characteristic polynomial in the z variable, just says that the bilinear transformation can be used in conjunction with the Routh-Hurwitz criterion. Besides, it provides insight for understanding real systems along with Matlab examples and good problems
