Introduction to Dynamics and Control
Introduction to Dynamics and Control by Leonard Meirovitch provides a comprehensive and unified treatment of the mathematical modeling of physical systems and the subsequent design of control systems to govern their dynamic behavior. The text covers essential topics such as Newtonian and Lagrangian mechanics, system response in both time and frequency domains, and the principles of feedback control. It introduces students to modern control theory using state-space analysis alongside classical methods like Laplace transforms and root locus. By combining rigorous dynamic analysis with practical control engineering applications, this book serves as an ideal foundation for students in mechanical, aerospace, and electrical engineering to master the complexities of system stability and performance.
