control theory

Field of applied mathematics relevant to the control of certain physical processes and systems. It became a field in its own right in the late 1950s and early '60s. After World War II, problems arising in engineering and economics were recognized as variants of problems in differential equations and in the calculus of variations, though they were not covered by existing theories. Special modifications of classical techniques and theories were devised to solve individual problems, until it was recognized that these seemingly diverse problems all had the same mathematical structure, and control theory emerged. See also control system.


control theory
A science that deals with monitoring and controlling processes. The three categories are adaptive control, predictive control, PID and model-based control. See PID.

Photometric Calculations Photometric calculations identify points of pole placement, the types and numbers of poles you need, and pole heights necessary to create the best levels and quality of light.
They cover a range of concepts and methods, including spectral properties of linear time-delay systems, pseudospectra and robust stability analysis, computation of stability regions in parameter spaces, stability regions in delay-parameter spaces, stability of delay rays and delay-interference, stability of linear periodic systems with delays, the continuous pole placement method, the robust stabilization problem, and stabilization using a direct eigenvalue optimization approach.
The simple pole placement control design was adopted for the controller design in this project.
