Control theory is an interdisciplinary branch of engineering and mathematics that deals with the behavior of dynamical systems with inputs, and how their behavior is modified by feedback. The usual objective of control theory is to control a system, often called the plant, so its output follows a desired control signal, called the reference, which may be a fixed or changing value. To do this a controller is designed, which monitors the output and compares it with the reference. The difference between actual and desired output, called the error signal, is applied as feedback to the input of the system, to bring the actual output closer to the reference. Some topics studied in control theory are stability (whether the output will converge to the reference value or oscillate about it), controllability and observability.
Extensive use is usually made of a diagrammatic style known as the block diagram. The transfer function, also known as the system function or network function, is a mathematical representation of the relation between the input and output based on the differential equations describing the system.
I'm writing a book on the fundamentals of control theory! Find out more here: https://youtu.be/aLlbwk68-tw Welcome to my channel trailer and the first video for a course on control theory. In this video I present a few reasons why learning control theory is important and try to give some motivation to continue learning.

The Control Theory Seminar is a one-day technical seminar covering the fundamentals of control theory. This video is part 1 of a 4-part series highlighting the Control Theory Seminar. Information in this seminar will be valuable to electronic, electrical and mechanical engineers. The aim is to provide practicing engineers with insight into elementary control problems and their solution. An understanding of basic engineering mathematics is recommended to benefit fully from this course.

In sociology, control theory is the view that people refrain from deviant behavior because diverse factors control their impulses to break social norms. Developed by thinkers such as Travis Hirschi and Walter Reckless in the late 1960s and early 1970s, control theory explains why people often do not act on deviant impulses. Some controls are internal, such as a person's conscience and motivation to succeed; others are external, such as one's parents, friends, and legal codes. For example, fear of potential embarrassment and store security might quell a person's desire to steal. Control theory links non-deviant behavior to socialization and social bonds: those who are more socialized as children and maintain stronger bonds with others are less likely to behave in deviant ways. ---------- ...
Thanks for all of the support over the years! I've been asked by many of you to provide a PDF of my videos so that you can refer back to them when you're not watching on YouTube. Instead of just providing a PDF I've decided to write an ebook that will hopefully make more sense than just a bunch of screen shots tied together. You can get the book, The Fundamentals of Control Theory here: https://konoz.io/BrianDouglas And then by clicking on the updates link just below the banner. The latest release of the book will be near the top of the recent posts. Cheers!

Gate-Control Theory Psy Project Act 1 Setting: a typical Classroom, and the teacher tries to explain Gate- Control Theory Mrs. Heather: Gate-Control Theory, it means ONE pain message at a time, one pain message at a time, 1 pain message at a time… (Brandon accidentally gives himself a papercut while Heather is teaching) Brandon: UHH I cut myself! What do I do? Mrs. Heather: uhh run into the wall Brandon: that wall? Mrs. Heather: or that wall? Brandon: I’ll do this one (Brandon throws himself into the wall) Brandon: WOW your right! (Brandon Gazes into camera) (Da Bruce explaining what Happened) Da Bruce: The teacher advises Brandon to throw himself into the wall to show him an example of how one pain message can overcome another pain message that is worse than the first one. Act 2 Se...

This Matlab tutorial is created to help Controls Theory Students. Designed by Ahmed Abu-Hajar, Ph.D. Students must appreciate the facilitation of exiting technology in education. Now, we expect nothing less that excellence from you. Good luck to you all.
In the inaugural College of Engineering Distinguished Lecture, John Baillieul, an ENG professor of aerospace and mechanical engineering, discusses several concepts related to control theory, from the study of human-robot interactions to the failure mechanisms of biological networks. Hosted by Boston University College of Engineering on March 5, 2008.
This video covers Problem 2 of Tutorial 7 for the MA3005 Control Theory class at Nanyang Technological University. In this video, I explain steps required to draw a root locus of a system (in block diagram) manually.
Lorenza Viola, Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Dartmouth College, gave a lecture on Introduction to Quantum Control for Quantum Information Processing. The lecture is the first of two parts, and was filmed at the Canadian Summer School on Quantum Information, held at the University of Waterloo in June of 2012.

Advanced Instructional School on Theoretical and Numerical Aspects of Inverse Problems URL: https://www.icts.res.in/program/IP2014 Dates: Monday 16 Jun, 2014 - Saturday 28 Jun, 2014 Description In Inverse Problems the goal is to determine the properties of the interior of an object from the object response measured on the boundary, when the object is probed by electrical, acoustic or other means. Such problems arise in medical imaging, oil exploration, non-destructive testing and other fields. Determining the object properties corresponds to finding the non-constant coefficients of a partial differential equation (PDE) from the values, on the boundary of the region, of the solutions of the PDE. These problems may also be interpreted as the inversion of non-linear maps or transforms. The ...
