章节摘录

　　The desire to control the forces of nature has been with man since early civilizations. Although many examples of control systems existed in early times, it was not until the mid-eighteenth century that several steam-operated control devices appeared1. This was the time of the steam engine, and perhaps the most noteworthy invention was the speed-control fly ball governor invented by James Watt.　　Around the beginning of the twentieth century much of the work in control systems was being done in the power generation and the chemical processing industry. Also by this time, concept of the autopilot for airplanes had been fairly well developed.　　The period beginning about twenty-five years before World War Two saw rapid advances in electronics and especially in circuit theory, aided by the now classical work of Nyquist in the area of stability theory2. The requirements of sophisticated weapon systems, submarines, aircrafts and the like gave new impetus to the work in control systems before and after the war.
