Books by Constantine H. Houpis

This book uses numerous in-depth explanations, diagrams, calculations, and tables to provide an intensive overview of modern control theory and control system design. Mathematics are kept to a minimum, and engineering applications are stressed throughout. Completely updated and packed with student-friendly features, the sixth edition presents a range of updated examples using MATLAB®, as well as an appendix listing MATLAB functions for optimizing control system analysis and design. Over 75 percent of the problems presented in the previous edition have been revised or replaced.

Features chapters on Quantitative Feedback Theory (QFT) design of non-diagonal compensators and QFT design techniques. This book offers information on time delay systems with uncertainty, MIMO QFT control design using weighting matrices and control authority allocation. It is suitable for practicing engineers.
