《現代控制工程（第5版）（英文版）》為自動控制系統的經典教材，詳細介紹了連續控制系統（包括電氣系統、機械系統、流體動力系統和熱力系統）的數學模型建模方法，動態系統的瞬態和穩態分析方法，根軌跡分析和設計方法，頻率域的分析和設計方法，以及PID控制器和變形PID控制器的設計方法；同時還比較詳細地介紹了現代控制理論中的核心內容，狀態空間分析和設計方法。最后還簡要地介紹了20世紀80~90年代發展起來的稱為“后現代控制理論”的魯棒控制系統。全書自始至終，貫串了用MATLAB工具分析和設計各類控制系統問題。

Because this theory requires mathematical background at the graduate level。inclu-sion of robust control theory in this book is limited to introductory aspects only．Thereader interested in details of robust control theory should take a graduate·level controlcourse at an established college or university． Definitions．Before we can discuss control systems，some basic terminologies mustbe defined． Controlled Variablend Control Signal or Manipulated Variabl~The controlledvariable is the quantity or condition that is measured and controlled．The control signalor manipMated variable is the quantity or condition that is varied by the controller soas to affect the value of the controlled variable．Normally,the controlled variable is theoutput of the system．Control means measuring the value of the controlled variable ofthe system and applying the control signal to the system to correct or limit deviation ofthe measured value from a desired value． In studying control engineering，we need to define additional terms that are neces'sary to describe control systems． Plants．A plant may be a piece of equipment，perhaps just a set of machine partsfunctioning together，the purpose of which is to perform a particular operation．In thisbook，we shall call any physical object to be controlled(such as a mechanical device，aheating furnace，a chemical reactor，or a spacecraft)a plant． Processes．The Merriam二webster Dictionary defines a process to be a natural，pro-gressively continuing operation or development marked by a series of gradual changesthat succeed one another in a relatively fixed way and lead toward a particular result orend；or an artificial or voluntary,progressively continuing operation that consists of a se。ries of controlled actions or movements systematically directed toward a particular re-sult or end．In this book we shall call any operation to be controlled a process．Examplesare chemical，economic，and biological processes． Svstems． A system is a combination of components that act together and performa certain objective．A system need not be physical．The concept of the system can be applied to abstract．dynamic phenomena such as those encountered in economics．Theword system should，therefore，be interpreted to imply physical，biological，economic，andthe like，systems． Disturbances． A disturbance is a signal that tends to adversely affect the valueof the output of a system．If a disturbance is generated within the system，it is calledinternal,while an external disturbance is generated outside the system and is an input． Feedback Control Feedback control refers to an operation that．in the presence of disturbances，tends to reduce the difference between the output of a system and some reference input and does so on the basis of this difference．Here only unpredictable dis-turbances are so specified，since predictable or known disturbances can always be com-pensated for within the system．
