Preface
This book introduces students to the theory and practice of control systems
engineering. The text emphasizes the practical application of the subject to the
analysis and design of feedback systems.
The study of control systems engineering is essential for students pursuing
Gegrees in electrical. mechanical, aerospace. or chemical engineering. Control
systems are found in a broad range of applications within these disciplines, from,
aircraft and spacecraft to robots and process control systems.
Control Systems Engineering is. suitable for upper-division college and uni-
versity engineering students and for those who wish to master the subject matter
through self-study. The student using this text should have completed typical lower-
division courses in physics and mathematics through differential equations. Other
required background material. including Laplace transforms and linear algebra, is
incorporated in the text, either within chapter discussions or separately in the ap
Pendixes or on an accompanying CD-ROM. This review material can be omitted
‘without loss of continuity if the student does not require it.
The key features of this fourth edition are

Let us look at each feature in more detail.
Standardized Chapter Organization
Each chapter begins with a list of chapter objectives, followed by a list of case
study objectives that relate the chapter objectives to specific student performance
in solving a practical case study problem, such as an antenna azimuth position
control system.
Topics are then divided into clearly numbered and labeled sections containing
explanations, examples, and, where appropriate. skill-assessment exercises with
answers. These numbered sections are followed by one or more case studies, as will
be outlined in a few paragraphs. Each chapter ends with a brief summary, several
Teview questions requiring short answers, and a set of homework problems,
Qualitative and Quantitative Explanations
Explanations are clear and complete and, where appropriate, include a brief review
of required background material. Topics build upon and support one another in a
logical fashion. Groundwork for new concepts and terminology is carefully laid to
avoid overwhelming the student and to facilitate self-study.
Although quantitative solutions are obviously important, a qualitative or inte
itive understanding of problems and methods of solution is vital to producing the
insight required to develop sound designs. Therefore, whenever possible, new con
cepts are discussed from a qualitative perspective before quantitative analysis and
design are addressed. For example, in Chapter 8 the student can simply look at
the root locus and describe qualitatively the changes in transient response that will
occur as a system parameter, such as gain, is varied. This ability is developed with
the help of a few simple equations from Chapter 4.
Examples, Skill-Assessment Exercises, and Case Studies
Explanations are clearly illustrated by means of numerous numbered and tnbeled
Examples throughout the text. Where appropriate, a section concludes with Skill-
Assessment Exercises. These are computation drills, most with answers, that test
comprehension and provide immediate feedback. Complete solutions canbe found
on the accompanying CD-ROM.
Broader examples in the form of Case Studies can be found after the last num
bered section of every chapter. with the exception of Chapter 1. These case studies
are practical application problems that demonstrate the concepts introduced in the
chapter. Each case study concludes with a “Challenge” problem that students may
work in order to test their understanding of the material.
One of the case studies. concerning an antenna azimuth position control system,
is carried throughout the book. The purpose is to illustrate the application of new
material in each chapterte the same physical system, thus highlighting the continuity
of the design process. Another, more challenging case study, involving an Unmanned
Free-Swimming Submersible Vehicle, is developedover the course of five chapters.vi

‘Cyber Exploration Laboratory Experiments
Computer experiments using MATLAB. Simulink, and the Control System Tool-
box are found at the end of the Problems section of Chapters 4 through 13 under the
subheading Cyber Exploration Laboratory. The experiments allow the reader
to verify the concepts covered in the chapter via simulation. The reader also can
change parameters and perform “what if” exploration to pain insight into the effect
of parameter and configuration changes. The experiments are written with stated
Objectives, Minimum required software packages, as well as Prelab, Lab, and Post-
Tab tasks and questions. Thus. the experiments may be used for a laboratory course
that accompanies the class.
Abondant Illustrations
The ability to visualize concepts and processes is critical to the student's under-
standing. For this reason approximately 750 photos. diagrams, graphs, and tables
appear throughout the book to illustrate the topics under discussion.
Numerous End-of-Chapter Problems
Each chapter ends with a variety of homework problems that allow students to
test their understanding of the material preserued in the chapter, Problems vary
in degree of difficulty and complexity, and most chapters include several practical,
real-life problems to help maintain students” motivation. Also. the homework prob-
Jems contain a progressive analysis and design problem that uses the sume practical
system to demonstrate the concepts of each chapter.
Emphasis on Design
This textbook places a heavy emphasis on design. Chapters 8, 9, 11, 12, and 13
focus primarily on design. But even in chapters that cmphasize analysis, simple
design cxamples are included wherever possible.
‘Throughout the book, design examples involving phystcal systems are identi-
fied bya Beste icon. End-of chapter problems that involve the design
of physical systems are included under the separate heading Design Problems and
also, in chapters covering design, under the heading Progressive Analysis andPreface vil
Design Problem. In these examples and problems, a desired response is specifica,
and the student must evaluate certain system parameters, such as gain, or specify
a system configuration along with parameter values. In addition, the text includes
numerous design examples and problems (not identified by an icon) that involve
purcly mathematical systems.
Because visualization is so vital to understanding design, this text carefully
relates indirect design specifications to more familiar ones. For example, the less
familiar and indirect phase margin is carefully related to the more direct and famil-
iar percent overshoot before being used as 4 design specification.
For each general type of design problem introduced in the text, a methodology
for solving the problem is presented—in many cases in the form of a step-by-step
procedure. beginning with a statement of design objectives. Example problems
serve to demonstrate the methodology by following the procedure, making simpli-
fying assumptions, and presenting the fesults of the design in tables or plots that
compare the performance of the original system to that of the improved system.
‘This comparison also serves as a check on the simplifying assumptions.
‘Transient response design topics are covered comprehensively in the text. They
include
Design via gain adjustment using the root locus
‘Design of compensanon and controllers via the root locus
Design via gain adjustment using sinusoidal frequency response methods
Design of compensation via sinusoidal frequency response methods
Design of observers in state space using pole-placement techniques
Design of digital control systems via gain adjustment on the root locus
‘Design of digital control system compensation via s-plane design and the Tustin

Preface
Flexible Coverage
‘The material in this book can be adapted for w one-quarter or a one-semester course.
The organization is flexible, allowing the instructor to select the material that best
suits the requirements and time constraints of the class.
‘Throughout the book state-space methods are presented along with the classi-
cal approach. Chapters and sections (as well as examples, exercises. review ques-
tions. and problems) that cover state space are marked by a tate pede)
icon and can be omitted without any loss of continuity. Those wishing to add 2
basic introduction to state-space modeling can include Chapter 3 in the syllabus.
Ina one-semester course, the discussions of state-space analysis in Chapters 4,
5, 6, and 7, as well as state-space design in Chapter 12, can be covered along with
the classical approach. Another option is to teach state space separately by gather-
ing the appropriate chapters and sections marked with the tate’®paee. icon
into a single unit that follows the classical approach. In a one-quarter course, Chap-
ter 13, “Digital Control Systems,” could be eliminated.
Emphasis on Computer-Aided Analysis und Design
Control systems problems, particularly analysis and design problerns using the root
Joous, can be tedious, since their solution involves trial und error. ‘To solve these
problems, students should be given access to compulers or programmable calcu-
istors configured with appropriate software. In this fourth edition, MATLAB!
continues to be integrated into the text as un optional feature.
Many problems in this text can be solved with either a computer or a hand
held, programmable calculator. For example, students can use the programmable
calculator to (1) determine whether # point on the s-plane is also on the root lo-
us, (2) find magnitude and phase frequency response data for Nyquist and Bode
diagrams, and (3) convert between the following representations of a second-order
system:
Pole location in polar coordinates
Pole location in Cartesian coordinates
‘Characteristic polynomtal
Natural frequency and damping ratio
Settling time and percent overshoot
Peak time and percent overshoot
Sctiling time and peak time
Handheld calculators have the advantage of easy accessibility for homework and
exams. Please consult Appendix G, located on the enclosed CD-ROM, for a dis-
cussion of computational aids that can be adapted to handheld calculators,
Personal computers are better suited for more computation-intensive applica-
tions, such as plotting time responses, root loci, and frequency response curves,
as well as finding state-transition matrices. These computers also give the student

a real-world environment in which to analyze and design control systems. Those
not using MATLAB can write their own programs or use other programs, such as
Program CC. Please consult Appendix G, on the accompanying CD-ROM, for a
discussion of computational aids that can be adapted for use on computers that do
not have MATLAB installed.
Without access to computers or programmable calculators, students cannot
obtain meaningful analysis and design results and the learning experience will
be limited.

Sections 4.11 and 5.8 still contain the results of the derivations as well as examples.
Finally, the derivation of a schematic for a de motor, previously in Appendix F in
the third edition, has been moved to Appendix H on the accompanying CD-ROM.
Book Organization by Chapter
Many times it is helpful to understand an author's reasoning behind the organiza-
tion of the course material. The following paragraphs hopefully shed light on this
topic.
The primary gnal of Chapter | is to motivate students. In this chapter students
learn about the many applications of control systems in cveryday life and about
the advantages of study and a career in this field. Control systems engineering
design objectives, such as transient response, steady-state error, and stability, are
intcoduced, as is the path to obtaining these objectives. New and unfamiliar terms
also are included in the Glossary.
Many students have trouble with an early step in the analysis and design
sequence: wansforming a physical system into a schematic. This step requires
many simplifying assumptions based on experience the typical college student
does not yet possess, Identifying some of these assumptions in Chapter | helps to
fill the experience gap.
‘Chapters 2, 3, and 5 address the representation of physical systems. Chapters 2
and 3 cover modeling of open-loop systems, using frequency response techniques
and state-space techniques, respectively. Chapter 5 discusses the representation and
reduction of systems formed of interconnected open-logp subsystems, Only a rep-
resentative sample of physical systems can be covered in a textbook of this length.
Electrical, mechanical (both translational and rotational), and clectromechanical
systems are used as examples of physical systems that are modeled, analyzed, and
designed, Linearization of a nonlinear system—one technique used by the engineer
to simplify a system in order to represent it mathematically—is also introduced.xii Preface
Chapter 4 provides an introduction to system analysis, that is, finding and
describing the output response of a system. It may seem more logical to reverse
the order of Chapters 4 and 5, to present the material in Chapter 4 along with
other chapters covering analysis. However, many years of teaching control systems
have taught me that the sooner students see an upplication of the study of system
representation, the higher their motivation levels remain,
Chapters 6, 7, 8, and 9 return to control systems analysis and design with the
stucly of stability (Chapter 6), steady-state errors (Chapter7), and transient response
of higher-order systems using root locus techniques (Chapter 8). Chapter 9 covers
design of compensators und controllers using the root locus.
Chapters 10 and 11 focus on sinusoidal frequency analysis and design. Chap-
ter 10, like Chapter 8, covers basic concepts for stability, transient response, and
steady-state error analysis. However, Nyquist and Bode methods are used in place
of root locus. Chapter 11, like Chapter 9, covers the design of compensators, but
from the point of view of sinusoida) frequency techniques rather than root locus.
An introduction to state-space design and digitai control systems analysis and
design completes the textin Chapters 12 and 13, respectively. Although these chap-
ters can be used as an introduction for students who will be continuing their study
cof control systems engineering, they are useful by themselves and asa supplement
to the discussion of analysis and design in the previous chapters. The subject mat-
ter cannot be given a comprehensive treatment in two chapters, but the emphasis
is clearly outhined and logically linked to the rest of the book.
