Читать книгу Control Theory Applications for Dynamic Production Systems - Neil A. Duffie - Страница 13

Control system engineering software is an essential tool for control system designers. MATLAB^® and its Control System Toolbox^TM from The MathWorks, Inc.² is one of the more widely used, and MATLAB^® programs have been included in many of the examples in this book to illustrate how such software can be used to obtain practical results quickly using transfer functions and control theoretical methods.³ Computations that would be very tedious to perform by hand can be performed by such software using a relatively small number of statements, and numerical and graphical results can be readily displayed. Programming control system engineering calculations on platforms other than MATLAB^® often uses functions and syntax that are similar to those in the Control System Toolbox^TM. For purposes of brevity and compatibility between platforms, some programming details are omitted in the examples in this book.
