Control Engineering: Learn the Fundamentals with Top Textbooks and Lecture Notes

AI Thread Summary
A second-year mechanical engineering student seeks recommendations for textbooks or lecture notes on control engineering, specifically covering topics such as Laplace transforms, open and closed loop systems, stability analysis, and frequency response. The student emphasizes the need for resources that include examples of control systems and methods like the root locus and Nyquist stability criterion. One suggested textbook is "Control System Engineering" by Nise, 4th edition. The student also requests that any lecture notes be sent directly to their email. Comprehensive resources are essential for mastering these fundamental concepts in control engineering.

I am a second year student studying mechanical engineering and I severely need a good textbook or lecture notes(preferably) for control engineering that covers the followings:

-Review of: partial fractions, complex numbers, Laplace transform techniques.
- Introduction of open and closed loop systems.
- Application of Laplace transform method to system transient and steady-state response.
- Block diagram method.
- Examples of control systems including speed and position control.
- Stability, root locus method.
- Frequency Response
Polar graphs or plots
Stability analysis
Nyquist Stability Criterion

If you have a good textbook please tell me and if you have good lecture notes,please share them with me. In the case of lecture notes, please send them to nasiriparsa@gmail.com

Look for Control System Engineering by Nise, 4th ed.
 
Posted June 2024 - 15 years after starting this class. I have learned a whole lot. To get to the short course on making your stock car, late model, hobby stock E-mod handle, look at the index below. Read all posts on Roll Center, Jacking effect and Why does car drive straight to the wall when I gas it? Also read You really have two race cars. This will cover 90% of problems you have. Simply put, the car pushes going in and is loose coming out. You do not have enuff downforce on the right...
Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'
Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...
I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly
