Feedback is a fundamental concept in modern engineering, with its influence extending into many other fields.
Dr. Bennett explores the growing recognition of feedback’s importance in engineering, detailing the technical advancements that led to this understanding. The book begins with a historical look at the control of prime movers and a thorough examination of 19th-century work on stability issues.
It then covers the development of steam and hydraulic servomechanisms and their use in controlling ships and aircraft. Later chapters discuss the evolution of electrical control systems, from arc lamps to feedback amplifiers. The book concludes with an overview of early theoretical work in circuit analysis, which laid the groundwork for the feedback system analysis techniques developed in the 1930s.
