Anybody know where to find some understandable control systems tutorials?
I have been searching high and low for this type of material. I am currently taking a class, and I am having my ass handed to me on a silver platter. Any advice would help, I tried youtube but my professor makes the problems harder than what I am able to find. Any guidance would be appreciated. I am on Bode plots now.

Thanks

well, the text I had in Controls was by Ogata - at the time considered The Bible

you might want to consider hunting down the Open Courseware link to the MIT engineering library - I am sure they will have a few things

I remember controls - it was not intuitive, lots of LaPlace transforms and some serious looking differential equations

through variables and across variables

nightmares....shit - didn't think I remembered that

I wonder how many takes it took for him to say all that with a straight face. Or, maybe he is a salesman.

They probably just got a guy with an IQ of 95, taught him how to read the words, and told him it was a serious commercial.
