Abstract: The root locus method is one of the fundamental methods in classical control theory, which, however, has not received considerable attention in modern control theory. The gap of the root ...

Profile of alumnus Walter R. Evans, whose root locus method transformed control systems engineering and everyday technologies, and the family legacy behind it.

In control system analysis and design, the root locus method is a crucial tool that helps engineers to predict and analyze the transient behavior of a closed-loop system. The root locus diagram is a ...

Based on Quansar’s two-degree-of-freedom helicopter, which has two DC motor propellers for controlling pitch angle θ and yaw angle ψ. Discrete-time controllers are designed for each of these two ...

This is a fun little weekend project I worked on for my Modern Control Theory class. It is a Python implementation of the Root Locus Design Method. It plots the location of the roots of the ...
