Gene Franklin, J. David Powell, Abbas Emami-Naeini, Feedback Control of Dynamic Systems, 4th Edition, Prentice-Hall, 2002, ISBN: 0-13-032393-4, 912p.

Feedback4 ImageIn its fourth edition, Feedback Control of Dynamic Systems retains its balanced coverage of modern and classical topics, the early incorporation of design aspects, and its discussion of analysis techniques; all hallmark features that established it as the authoritative controls text. Due to instructor demand, the third edition expanded coverage of dynamics modeling and Laplace transform topics. The book is available for purchase at the publishers web site: Prentice-Hall.
