Design and Implementation covering the first course and begins with a presentation of famous historical feedback control systems such as the water clock and flyball speed governor followed by Plant modeling with the use of a RC circuit (electrical) and shock-absorber (mechanical) alongwith feedback control concept using the same two plants. Time-domain and frequency-domain designs are presented using root-locus and Bode methods with Matlab simulations while PID controller design is discussed with reference to compensators (lead, lag, and notch), controller implementation in analog (using OpAmps) and digital (microcontroller) forms. Illustrations and examples are extensively used to help quickand correct understanding of the subject. The examples are based on Matlab simulations of which the codes are freely available at http://www.ent.mrt.ac.lk/~rohan/books/pp5221/index.html. The book has been written concisely so that itcould be covered within a single semester conveniently.
