Engineering Differential Equations pp Cite as. This chapter considers some standard methods to design controllers. As is the case with design in engineering in general, there are many different ways to do this, but this book is limited to two types.

This chapter focuses on lead—lag control. A lead compensator generally enhances the stability of a system and is designed to meet the transient response specifications for the system. A lag compensator generally decreases the steady-state error without significantly altering the transient response characteristics of the system. The previous chapter, by way of introduction to controls, developed the usual rules for design of PID controllers. The objective of this research is to develop an alternative method to model, analyze, and design responsive manufacturing systems using classical control theory.

This new approach permits industrial engineers to study and better predict the transient behavior of responsive manufacturing systems in terms of production lead time, WIP overshoot, system responsiveness, and lean finished inventory. We provide a one-to-one correspondence to translate manufacturing terminologies from the System Dynamics SD models into the block diagram representation and transfer functions.

We can analytically determine the transient characteristics of responsive manufacturing systems. This analytical formulation is not offered in discrete event simulation or system dynamics approach. We further introduce the Root Locus design technique that investigates the sensitivity of the closed-loop poles location as they relate to the manufacturing world on a complex s-plane. This subsequent complex plane analysis offers new management strategies to better predict and control the dynamic responses of responsive manufacturing systems in terms of inventory build-up i.

We define classical control theory terms and interpret their meanings according to the closed-loop poles locations to assist production management in utilizing the Root Locus design tool. Containing 75 solved problems and figures, this edition will be useful for junior and senior level university students in engineering who have a good knowledge of complex variables and linear algebra. Numerous figures, tables. Solution guide available upon request. Introduction to Control Theory Author : S.

Introduction to Control Theory Author : O. The early chapters provide a solid foundation to the theory of control and are in the most part descriptive, introducing fundamental terminology and explaining the principles, which underlie the operation of all control systems, whilst in the last three chapters more advanced techniques are used to give an account of the methods employed by control engineers.

Modern contributions to the theory at the time are included and questions are set at the end of each chapter. Giving a 'historical summary of the main landmarks in the development of control theory', this book will be of value to anyone with an interest in the history of engineering. Introduction to control theory Author : Lowell B.

The classical as well as the state space approach is included and integrated as much as possible. The first part of the book deals with analysis in the time domain.
