Book Description:
This second edition comprehensively presents important tools of linear systems theory, including differential and difference equations, Laplace and Z transforms, and more.Linear Systems Theory discusses:oNonlinear and linear systems in the state space form and through the transfer function methodoStability, including marginal stability, asymptotical stability, global asymptotical stability, uniform stability, uniform exponential stability, and BIBO stabilityoControllabilityoObservabilityoCanonical formsoSystem realizations and minimal realizations, including state space approach and transfer function realizationsoSystem designoKalman filtersoNonnegative systemsoAdaptive controloNeural networksThe book focuses mainly on applications in electrical engineering, but it provides examples for most branches of engineering, economics, and social sciences.What's New in the Second Edition?oCase studies drawn mainly from electrical and mechanical engineering applications, replacing many of the longer case studiesoExpanded explanations of both linear and nonlinear systems as well as new problem sets at the end of each chapteroIllustrative examples in all the chaptersoAn introduction and analysis of new stability conceptsoAn expanded chapter on neural networks, analyzing advances that have occurred in that field since the first editionAlthough more mainstream than its predecessor, this revision maintains the rigorous mathematical approach of the first edition, providing fast, efficient development of the material.Linear Systems Theory enables its reader to develop his or her capabilities for modeling dynamic phenomena, examining their properties, and applying them to real life situations.
