- COSY_PAK
- ========
-
- This is an unsupported release of COSY_PAK - a COntrol SYstems
- analysis PAcKage for symbolic control systems analysis using
- Mathematica 2.0 and higher. Classical control systems analysis
- and design methods and some modern control systems methods
- have been implemented in this package.
-
- This package and the attendant notebooks were developed on a
- NeXT (TM) computer (an UNIX based workstation). They have been
- used as a supplementary teaching aid along with a standard control
- engineering text (Ogata [1991]) for an undergraduate course in
- `Control Engineering I' taught at the Systems Engineering Department
- of CWRU. In addition to the NeXT, they have also been tested
- successfully on Apple Macintosh computers (TM), and, IBM PC's
- (TM) running MS Windows(TM). We would be very much interested
- to hear from you if you or anybody you know use this software on
- platforms not mentioned above. IBM users however will have to
- evaluate the notebooks first to visualize the graphics.
-
- Once installed (see below for instructions), this collection of
- Mathematica packages can be loaded by any user. Bundled with the
- packages are many notebooks ("COSY_Notes") which demonstrate
- the functionality of these packages. The notebooks follow a plan of
- many fine, standard, undergraduate Control Engineering text books
- listed in the references. Examples used in these notebooks have
- been collected from the various references given at the end of this
- file.
