Control Systems Engineering

by Norman S. Nise

Highly regarded for its accessible writing and practical case studies, Control Systems Engineering is the most widely adopted textbook for this core course in Mechanical and Electrical engineering programs. This new sixth edition has been revised and updated with 20% new problems and greater emphasis on computer-aided design. Close the loop between your lectures and the lab!

Integrated throughout the Nise text are 10 virtual experiments, which enable students to implement the design-simulate-prototype workflow of practicing engineers. Powered by LabVIEW software and simulations of Quanser's lab plants, the virtual labs enable students to apply concepts to virtual systems, implement control solutions and evaluate their results. The virtual labs deepen the homework learning experience and prepare students to make more effective use of their time in the lab. Empower your students to take control of their learning with virtual labs accessible anywhere internet is available!

A really enjoyable book. I got mesmerised by the presentation of the author. Each chapter would start with a gentle introduction and then proceed on explaining the topics and finally give the reader where and how the theories learnt can be applied. The worked out examples are also good and gives the reader ample idea of solving problems and the book also offers a great collection of problems to solve. In a word this is a great book and after a long while I have come across such an elegant book in my coursework.

I used this book for my intro controls courses. It's pretty good and easy to understand for the most part. I think the explanations of PID control design and lead/lag compensators could have been a little better. I'm not sure if this should be covered in an introductory course, but this book does not cover LQR control, which I find somewhat disappointing.

This is a good book, except for the examples. The author skips many of the steps in his math, which makes the examples quite hard to follow.

The best book for the undergraduate students to study as a reference book for the course linear control systems. I regret that I didn't study this one when I had the chance.

I have read the whole book, the author explains everything precisely and in an organised manner. Two case studies go side by side and you also learn how to use MATLAB/simulink software for understanding and computations. Loved it as a Mechatronics & Control Engineer.

its a excellent book

I think the best way to introduce the reader to the control subject is by reading this book.However, It needs a good foundation in signals and systems, diff equations and linear algebra topics before you go for this one, this book gives you everything related to the classical control theory but you will still need another books for modern control theory (state-space) and digital control systems.

i think its a very good site for me to read out a book online easily and to gathered my knowledge.
