Section Information
Control Theory and Methods is a fundamental field of engineering and applied mathematics that focuses on the behavior of dynamical systems and the design of controllers to regulate their behavior. Control systems are used in a wide range of applications, from industrial automation and robotics to aerospace, automotive systems, and even climate control. The goal of control theory is to develop methods and algorithms that ensure systems behave in a desired manner, often in the presence of uncertainties, disturbances, or noise.
