Book, Automatic Control 2/18[LS]

Automatic Control reaches its 2nd edition with an approach to process control and position control, essential for Control Systems students. The book has been expanded, with the inclusion of a chapter on controller design in state space. The didactic approach with examples and exercises was maintained. Based on extensive professional and academic experience, authors Plínio Benedicto de Lauro Castrucci, Anselmo Bittar and Roberto Moura Sales present the main topics in a clear and objective way, so that undergraduate students can definitively understand signal feedback in its countless forms. Problems with varying degrees of complexity explore in a balanced way process control – industrial plants in general, chemical, thermal, cement, petrochemical plants – and position control – machine tools, robots, rolling mills, aircraft, subways, radar antennas . The Automatic Control book is recommended for graduation in various Engineering courses, such as Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Control and Automation Engineering and Telecommunications Engineering.
