This unique textbook takes the student from the initial steps in modeling a dynamic system through development of the mathematical models needed for feedback control. The generously-illustrated, student-friendly text focuses on fundamental theoretical development rather than the application of commercial software. Practical details of machine design are included to motivate the non-mathematically inclined student.

Professor Karl Seeler is Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Lafayette College. His research interests mechanical properties of polymer, microcellular polymers, structural stability, machine safety, and systems dynamics. He holds a PhD from MIT.
