DESCRIPTION:
. He has also written two well-respected books with Elsevier, Control System Design Guide, now in its fourth edition, and Observers in Control Systems. For 30 years he has worked in product development including leading product development projects, designing development processes, and creating portfolio management systems. He has contributed articles to numerous m
Control System Design Guide, 2E will allow engineers and hobbyists to apply control theory to practical systems using your PC. * Teaches control from an intuitive approach; avoids unnecessary mathematics* Based on virtual laboratory--key topics are demonstrated with over a dozen models of control systems * The models are written in ModelQ, and can be run on software available free of charge via the Internet to every reader with a PC* Goes beyond proportional-integral-differential (PID) control* Provides detailed comparison of seven different controllers* Explains how to model machines and processes including how to measure working equipment; describes many non-linear behaviors seen in industrial control systems* Provides discussion of electronic motion control including details on how motors and motor feedback devices work, causes and cures mechanical resonance, and shows how position loops work. Whether you are just starting to use controllers or have years of experience, C
Nine appendices add usefulness in the form of analytical methods, transformations, and guidance for using ModelQ."--CONTROL ENGINEERING E-Newsletter, August 2000 . It provides a comprehensive overview of design methods and guidelines that typically take years of practice to learn. The PC-oriented book uses ModelQ, a Microsoft Windows-based modeling and simulation program written by the author, to effectively demonstrate control concepts. William Kneifel II, Ph.D., Development Manager, Trellis Software & Controls, Inc."No matter how much you think you may know about the subject, there is something everyone can learn from this book. This book is control systems A-Z, and is the best book I have seen on the subject."--Dave Trapasso, Senior Project Engineer, Advanced Product Development of Engine Control Systems, Major worldwide automotive components manufacturer "George Ellis' new book, Control System Design Guide,
A Practical Hads-On Guide to Control System Design This book is NOT just another academically oriented controls textbook. This book focuses exclusively on servo and motion systems. It presents highly complex topics, but avoids relying on detailed mathematical analysis, and instead emphasizes practical approaches that can be applied by anyone working on drive and motion systems. The book coveys complex topics in a clear and enlightening manner. Perhaps the most outstanding feature of this book is . Controls systems A-Z Dave Trapasso While the 1st edition of the book is itself a good text on the subject, how could this book be improved upon? It appears that the 1st edition is at best only an outline of what appears it the 2nd edition. Each of the subjects is covered in much more detail than the 1st edition. New subjects have also been added. Just the section on motors makes this book worth reading. The appendix is very interesting reading, and could almost be made into a quic. Steven L. Reid said Control System Design Tapestry. I attended a seminar given by the author in May "Control System Design Tapestry" according to Steven L. Reid. I attended a seminar given by the author in May 2000 and was given an early copy of this book. Without question, the book should be owned by anyone involved with feedback control systems. While solidly grounded in theory, the content of the book stresses the practical side of control systems. The subject matter is primarily directed towards motion control but the majority of the book would be useful to those involved with process control or other. 000 and was given an early copy of this book.
