Quantitative Feedback Theory - 9780367391591

CRC Press

Quantitative Feedback Theory bridges the gap between scientific and engineering methods. This second edition features new chapters on QFT design of non-diagonal compensators and QFT design techniques applied to real world industrial systems. It provides new and expanded information on time delay systems with uncertainty, MIMO QFT control design using weighting matrices and control authority allocation, wastewater treatment, and large wind turbine control systems. It also includes a section on QFT standard symbols and terminology. With PC-CAD software, five new appendices, and an extended reference section, this text is ideal for engineering students and practicing engineers. > The first edition of Quantitative Feedback Theory gained enormous popularity by successfully bridging the gap between theory and real-world engineering practice. Avoiding mathematical theorems, lemmas, proofs, and correlaries, it boiled down to the essential elements of quantitative feedback theory (QFT) neco
