Steve Brunton introduces control theory, explaining the differences between open-loop and closed-loop feedback control systems.

Overview lecture for bootcamp on optimal and modern control. In this lecture, we discuss the various types of control and the benefits of closed-loop feedback control. These lectures follow Chapter 8 from: "Data-Driven Science and Engineering: Machine Learning, Dynamical Systems, and Control" by Brunton and Kutz Amazon: amazon.com/Data-Driven-Science-Engineering-Learning-Dynamica… Book Website: databookuw.com Brunton Website: eigensteve.com Chapters available at: databookuw.com/databook.pdf These lectures also follow Chapters 1 & 3 from: Machine learning control, by Duriez, Brunton, & Noack amazon.com/Machine-Learning-Control-Turbulence-Applications-… Chapters available at: faculty.washington.edu/sbrunton/mlcbook/ This video was produced at the University of Washington

On “Efficiency is dangerous and slowing down makes life better”

Steve Brunton, a University of Washington professor has a sweet lecture series called the Control Bootcamp that dives deep into control fundamentals while still being approachable. Great production values too: link to this video

On “You need to know what right-half-plane zeros are”

Not a book, but this series on Youtube is excellent. link to this video > familiar with Nyquist-Shannon's theorem BTW: In control theory there is also link

On “Ask HN: What are some of the best university courses available online for free?”

Big fan of steve brunton's control bootcamp series. Helped me through my control systems courses greatly link to this video Great for robotics, or anything where you need to control complex physical systems, from f1 cars to 3d characters in games

On “Introduction to Model Predictive Control”

I really like the Control System Bootcamp videos by Prof. Steve Brunton on youtube: link to this video Good book's to accompany the videos are: - linear systems theory by Joao Hespanha (has some MATLAB code) - Linear state-space control systems by Willams and Lawrence (has some MATLAB code) - Control system design by Bernard Friedland (20 usd dover paperback available) - Data-Driven Science & Engineering by Steve Brunton (video guy above) and Kutz Some other interesting books: - Control system engineering: design and implementation using ARM Cortex-M Micro-controllers (some MATLAB and C code) - Linear Feedback Control: analysis and design with MATLAB by Xue, Chen and Atherton (MATLAB, obviously) ...a l…
