A practical and straightforward exploration of the basic tools for the modeling, analysis, and design of control systems.
In  An Introduction to System Modeling and Control, Dr. Chiasson delivers  an accessible and intuitive guide to understanding modeling and control  for students in electrical, mechanical, and aerospace/aeronautical  engineering. The book begins with an introduction to the need for  control by describing how an aircraft flies complete with figures  illustrating roll, pitch, and yaw control using its ailerons, elevators,  and rudder, respectively. The book moves on to rigid body dynamics  about a single axis (gears, cart rolling down an incline) and then to  modeling DC motors, DC tachometers, and optical encoders. Using the  transfer function representation of these dynamic models, PID  controllers are introduced as an effective way to track step inputs and  reject constant disturbances.
It is further shown how any  transfer function model can be stabilized using output pole placement  and on how two-degree of freedom controllers can be used to eliminate  overshoot in step responses. Bode and Nyquist theory are then presented  with an emphasis on how they give a quantitative insight into a control  system's robustness and sensitivity. An Introduction to System Modeling  and Control closes with chapters on modeling an inverted pendulum and a  magnetic levitation system, trajectory tracking control using state  feedback, and state estimation. In addition the book offers.
A complete set of MATLAB/SIMULINK files for examples and problems included in the book
A set of lecture slides for each chapter
A solutions manual with recommended problems to assign
An analysis of the robustness and sensitivity of four different controller designs for an inverted pendulum (cart-pole)
Perfect  for electrical, mechanical, and aerospace/aeronautical engineering  students, An Introduction to System Modeling and Control will also be an  invaluable addition to the libraries of practicing engineers.
