Analysis and Design
Multivariable Feedback Control: Analysis and Design, Second Edition, by Sigurd Skogestad and Ian Postlethwaite, is a textbook on robust multivariable feedback control systems. It provides a practical and in-depth approach to analysis and design within feedback control.
Description
This second, updated edition covers the analysis and design of multivariable feedback controllers with an emphasis on practical applications rather than general system theory. The book introduces new insights such as linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), performance constraints imposed by RHP poles and zeros, and simple IMC tuning rules for PID controllers.
It also includes extensive case studies, exercises, and examples using Matlab and the Robust Control Toolbox. This reference work is suitable for advanced undergraduate and master’s students and practice-oriented engineers who delve into feedback control and systems design.
This book is also valuable for applications in new areas such as systems biology, and offers recommendations for selecting manipulated variables and for self-optimizing control.
