Abstract :
Discusses the usefulness of a graphical tool (developed using MATLAB) in terms of classical controls education. By using this tool, the iterative procedure involved in controller design is easily demonstrated. Illustrative examples are provided to help expose the limitations of “hard rules” associated with classical controls education
