Case Studies

Case studies covering analysis, design, and simulation of discrete-time controllers are presented in this chapter. The speed control of the hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) model is considered for analysis, design, and simulation of controllers, and both transfer function– and state space–based controllers are considered as one of the project activities integrating the concepts covered. The position control of a rotary inverted pendulum model is considered for modeling, analysis, design, and simulation of controllers in state space as a second project.
