control: Control Systems toolbox
Control systems engineering is a discipline that models the behaviour of a wide range of dynamic systems and the design of controllers that enable these systems produce a desired behaviour. The system analysis is carried out in the time domain using differential equations, in the complex-s domain with the Laplace transform, or in the frequency domain by transforming from the complex-s domain. In recent times, control theory is carried out in the state space, and can deal with multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) systems. This overcomes the limitations of classical control theory in more sophisticated design problems. Control techniques today are mostly implemented through computers often as embedded systems.
Control engineering has an essential role in a wide range of control systems, from simple household washing machines to high-performance F-16 fighter aircraft. It seeks to understand physical systems, using mathematical modeling, in terms of inputs, outputs and various components with different behaviors, use control systems design tools to develop controllers for those systems and implement controllers in physical systems employing available technology.
Applications of control methodology have helped to make possible space travel and communication satellites, safer and more efficient aircraft, cleaner automobile engines, and cleaner and more efficient chemical processes.
MATLAB, OCTAVE, PYTHON, SCILAB and several other scientific computing tools have toolboxes in the form of functions/methods that enable the analysis and simulation of control systems.
This project aims at developing an R package that could be generally used for basic control systems studies.
