This Companion Website (CW) has been created to supplement study and teaching from the classic, best-selling textbook Modern Control Systems, 10/e by Richard C. Dorf and Robert H. Bishop.

The CW contains resources for both students and instructors.

These resources include:

• A virtual online Study Guide for students, with a wide variety of extra problems and practice exams (with solutions) developed to mirror the contents of the book, and help students develop effective problem-solving strategies. This online study guide is interactive, and provides immediate feedback to students. Problems include:
  • Matching: Intended to help students master new terminology introduced in the book
  • True/False: Intended to ask students to think conceptually about the material presented
  • Multiple/Choice: Intended to provide students with extra practice on a wide array of problems.
    
    
• MATLAB and Simulink m-files for all examples in the text. Students can download these in multiple formats and use them to aid their use of MATLAB and Simulink.
  
  
• Every Figure (over 800 of them) from the book available in downloadable PDF format for use as lecture transparencies.
  
  
• Downloadable design formulas in pdf format
  
  
• Downloadable appendices in pdf format:
  • Appendix C Symbols, Units, and Conversion Factors
  • Appendix D Laplace Transform Pairs
  • Appendix E An Introduction to Matrix Algebra
  • Appendix F Decibel Conversion
  • Appendix G Complex Numbers
  • Appendix H z-Transform Pairs
    
    
• More resources will be added to the website on an ongoing basis, making this a dynamic site to enhance learning. Check in often!
