Digital Simulation of Dynamic Systems

Booknews

Shows how to design and perform simulations of dynamic systems and to analyze the results obtained from the perspective of accuracy, stability, and computation time. A control theory approach using Laplace and Z-transform techniques is used. Includes discussion of operational substitution methods, numerical integration, special problems in stiff systems, nonlinear systems, and multiple integration methods. Source listings of MATLAB programs used in examples are included. Problems follow each chapter. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
