Marine Systems Identification, Modelling and Control is a concise, standalone resource covering the theory and practice of dynamic systems and control for marine engineering students and professionals.

Developed from a distance learning CPD course on marine control taught by the authors, the book presents the essentials of the subject, including system representation and transfer, feedback control and closed loop stability. Simulation code and worked examples are provided for both Scilab and MATLAB, making it suitable for both those without access to expensive software and those using MATLAB in a professional setting.

Marine Systems Identification, Modelling and Control considers the key topics without superfluous detail and is illustrated with marine industry examples, providing a marine-focused alternative to more general control engineering tomes that lack context and are intended for broader control study or work.
Concise and practical, covering the relevant theory without excessive detail alongside industry-specific examples and applications for marine engineering students and professionals.
Clearly presents the key topics of the subject, including system representation and transfer, feedback control and closed loop stability, making it ideal for self-study or reference.
Simulation code and worked examples using Scilab and MATLAB provided on the book s companion website."
