Description
Working through this student-centred text readers will be brought up to speed with the modelling of control systems using Laplace, and
given a solid grounding of the pivotal role of control systems across the spectrum of modern engineering. A clear, readable text is supported
by numerous worked example and problems.
Audience
Students following pre-degree vocational courses and first year degree modules.
UK courses: BTEC National (2001/02 specifications), HNC
/ HND (coverage of this book has been specifically matched to the Control Systems and Automation unit).
