الوصف
Control Engineering (2nd edition) by Derek P. Atherton is an introduction to continuous linear feedback control for single-input single-output (SISO) systems. It develops the core mathematical models used in control—differential equations, transfer functions, and state space representations—and shows how to work with them in MATLAB. The book then studies system responses in the time and frequency domains (including step, impulse, and sinusoidal responses), explains the structure and analysis of the basic feedback loop, and covers stability using multiple criteria. Classical controller design methods such as lead/lag compensation and PID control are presented alongside parameter optimisation and standard forms. Later chapters introduce time-delay effects, root locus, state space methods, and state feedback design, including LQR.

again and make any suitable changes. Also during the intervening period I have added two further
bookboon books one on ‘An Introduction to Nonlinearity in Control Systems’ and another very recently
on ‘Control Engineering Problems with Solutions’. This later book contains worked examples and some
problems with answers only, which cover the material in this book and ‘An Introduction to Nonlinearity
in Control Systems’. It is hoped that the relevant chapters of ‘Control Engineering Problems with
Solutions’ will help the reader gain a better understanding and deeper knowledge of the topics covered
in this textbook.
Minor changes have been made to this second edition mainly with respect to a few changes in wording,
but sadly despite repeated reading a few minor technical errors were found and corrected, for which
I apologise.
