Publisher's Synopsis
Control system engineering is a multidisciplinary discipline that applies automatic
control theory to design systems with desired behaviors in control environments.
Automatic control theory has played a vital role in the advancement of engineering and
science. It has become an essential and integral part of modern industrial and
manufacturing processes. Today, the requirements for control precision have increased,
and real systems have become more complex.
In control engineering and all other engineering disciplines, the impact of advanced
mathematical and computational methods is rapidly increasing. Advanced mathematical
methods are needed because real-world control systems need to comply with several
conditions related to product quality and safety constraints that have to be taken into
account in the problem formulation. Conversely, the increment in mathematical
complexity has an impact on the computational aspects related to numerical simulation
and practical implementation of the algorithms, where a balance must also be
maintained between implementation costs and the performance of the control system.
This book is a comprehensive set of articles reflecting recent advances in developing and
applying advanced mathematics and computational applications in control system
engineering.
