The countless technological advances of the 20th century require that future engineering education emphasizes bridging the gap between theory and the real world. To help the reader achieve this goal, computer-aided applied control design (CAACD) is used throughout the text to encourage good habits of computer literacy while keeping the mathematical complexity to a minimum. Each CAACD uses fundamental concepts to ensure the viability of a computer solution. This edition emphasizes applying control fundamentals to practical industry systems such as the ALSTOM gasifier system in power stations and underwater robotic vehicles (URVs) in the marine industry. The software commonly adopted are MATLAB® and Simulink®. One of the fundamental aims ...
