Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scilab is a very powerful, free and open-source software package for scientific and technical computation, visualization and programming. It includes a large number of general purpose and specialized functions, using state of the art algorithms, for numerical computation. These functions are organized in libraries called toolboxes that cover areas such as simulation, optimization, image processing, control and signal processing. With easy to use high level programming language and huge library of functions, Scilab reduces considerably the burden of programming for scientific and technical applications. It can also be interactively used as a very powerful scientific calculator. Since Scilab is available free of cost to everyone across the globe and is continuously upgraded by a strong team of open source developers, it is suitable for all undergraduate students, researchers, professors and professionals in any field of Science and Engineering. Further, many commercial developers are also using it to reduce their project cost and has reported many successful applications.This book is written following several years of teaching the software to our students in introductory courses in numerical methods. The basic objective to write this book is to teach Scilab in a friendly, non-intimidating fashion, without any previous programming experience. Therefore, the book is written in simple language with many sample problems in mathematics, science, and engineering. Starting from the basic concepts, the book gradually builds advanced concepts, making it suitable for freshmen and professionals. The source codes of all the examples presented in this book can be downloaded from https://github.com/arvindrachna/Introduction_to_ScilabFor promoting outcome based learning, each chapter of the book starts with chapter objectives and lucidly introduces the basic concepts, with sample examples, to achieve those objectives. Each chapter concludes with a summary and a list of key terms to recapitulate the learned concepts. Finally, the chapter ends with exercise problems so as students can apply the concepts learned in the chapter.The book consists of seven chapters. The first chapter gives a focused introduction to Scilab and explains how one can install the software on ones machine. The second chapter introduces the core concepts of Scilab, a matrix based technical computing environment. This chapter also introduces how the software can be used in its interactive mode to solve scientific and technical problems. The third chapter introduces how to create and manipulate vectors and matrices in Scilab. It also introduces array and matrix operators. The fourth chapter explains how polynomials can be processed in Scilab. Polynomial operations, differentiation and integration are also introduced. The fifth chapter explains graphics capabilities of Scilab. Various 2D and 3D graphics functions are explained in this chapter. The sixth chapter is focused on the programming capabilities of the software. Various programming constructs are explained with examples. The last chapter explains basic numerical methods and how to create Scilab programs for them. This chapter helps students to apply the learned concepts to actual numerical method problems. The book ends with an appendix of commonly used Scilab commands and functions.Table of Contents1Introduction to Scilab2Basics of Scilab3Vectors and Matrices4Polynomials5Scilab Graphics6Programming in Scilab7Numerical Methods Using Scilab8Appendix I : Commonly Used Scilab Functions

This book was released on 2014-06-07 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simulation of ODE/PDE Models with MATLAB®, OCTAVE and SCILAB shows the reader how to exploit a fuller array of numerical methods for the analysis of complex scientific and engineering systems than is conventionally employed. The book is dedicated to numerical simulation of distributed parameter systems described by mixed systems of algebraic equations, ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and partial differential equations (PDEs). Special attention is paid to the numerical method of lines (MOL), a popular approach to the solution of time-dependent PDEs, which proceeds in two basic steps: spatial discretization and time integration. Besides conventional finite-difference and element techniques, more advanced spatial-approximation methods are examined in some detail, including nonoscillatory schemes and adaptive-grid approaches. A MOL toolbox has been developed within MATLAB®/OCTAVE/SCILAB. In addition to a set of spatial approximations and time integrators, this toolbox includes a collection of application examples, in specific areas, which can serve as templates for developing new programs. Simulation of ODE/PDE Models with MATLAB®, OCTAVE and SCILAB provides a practical introduction to some advanced computational techniques for dynamic system simulation, supported by many worked examples in the text, and a collection of codes available for download from the book’s page at www.springer.com. This text is suitable for self-study by practicing scientists and engineers and as a final-year undergraduate course or at the graduate level.

Book excerpt: Scilab is open source software distributed under CeCILL license. Scilab is widely used in Engineering, Sciences and mathematics as a free tool. Scilab includes hundreds of mathematical functions. It has a high level programming language allowing access to advanced data structures, 2D and 3D graphical functions. Scilab is used as alternate software to MATLAB. Assuming no knowledge of programming, this book guides the reader through both programming and built-in functions to easily exploit Scilab's extensive capabilities for tackling engineering problems. The book starts with programming concepts, such as variables, assignments, and selection statements, moves on to loops, and then solves problems using both the programming concept. In-depth coverage is given to input/output, data structure a topic fundamental to many engineering applications. Book introduce the numerical analysis. Books also show the capability of SCILAB in 2D and 3D plotting. This book is based on the most recent version of Scilab (5.5) and a great deal of care has been put into communicating the best practices relevant to the current software. Scilab is available for Windows/ Mac and Linux but this book is written as platform independent. * Presents programming concepts and Scilab built-in functions and developing scripts. * Systematic, step-by-step approach, building on concepts throughout the book, facilitating easier learning * Sections on common pitfalls and programming guidelines direct students towards best practice The books is 248 pages with the ten different chapter like 1.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essential introduction to the principles and applications of feedback systems—now fully revised and expanded This textbook covers the mathematics needed to model, analyze, and design feedback systems. Now more user-friendly than ever, this revised and expanded edition of Feedback Systems is a one-volume resource for students and researchers in mathematics and engineering. It has applications across a range of disciplines that utilize feedback in physical, biological, information, and economic systems. Karl Åström and Richard Murray use techniques from physics, computer science, and operations research to introduce control-oriented modeling. They begin with state space tools for analysis and design, including stability of solutions, Lyapunov functions, reachability, state feedback observability, and estimators. The matrix exponential plays a central role in the analysis of linear control systems, allowing a concise development of many of the key concepts for this class of models. Åström and Murray then develop and explain tools in the frequency domain, including transfer functions, Nyquist analysis, PID control, frequency domain design, and robustness. Features a new chapter on design principles and tools, illustrating the types of problems that can be solved using feedback Includes a new chapter on fundamental limits and new material on the Routh-Hurwitz criterion and root locus plots Provides exercises at the end of every chapter Comes with an electronic solutions manual An ideal textbook for undergraduate and graduate students Indispensable for researchers seeking a self-contained resource on control theory
