Control Systems

Control Tutorials for MATLAB (Undergraduate 2nd year) Update Link / Bad Link? 
These tutorials are designed to illustrate how to use MATLAB and Simulink for the analysis and design of automatic control systems. They cover the basics of MATLAB and Simulink, the most common classical control design techniques (PID, root locus, and frequency response), as well as some modern (state-space) control design. The Control Systems Toolbox is used extensively in these tutorials.

Feedback Control Experiments - Experiments for feedback control education and research Update Link / Bad Link? 
Quanser Consulting, Inc., offers a complete line of feedback control experiments. The systems are robust, durable, and modular thus allowing you to reconfigure the same plant to obtain various experiments. Our experiments include the Inverted Pendulum, the Ball and Beam, the Seesaw/Pendulum MIMO experiment, and the Helicopter. All systems are equipped with quick-connect cabling, source code in C, handbooks, system modeling, and control system design files written in Maple, MATLAB, and Simulink. Capture your students' interest while teaching them well-established principles or give your research project an edge by implementing the new control strategies you are developing.
