Modeling and Analysis of Dynamic Systems by Charles M. Close offers clear insights into the methodology for modeling and analyzing various dynamic systems. This study book focuses on systems with different physical backgrounds, such as mechanical, electrical, thermo-dynamic, and fluidic in nature.
The book covers models in the form of state equations, differential equations, transfer functions, and block diagrams. The applicability of the Laplace transform for analytical solutions is explained. In addition, computer-based solutions using MATLAB and Simulink are introduced. Both linear and nonlinear systems are addressed, including an introduction to feedback control techniques.
