Applied Control Engineering

I use the saved simulation video as a starting point to revisit state-space control, observers, and digital control.

This study sequence connects the system flow visible in the video with standard control topics; it is not a claim about lecture weeks.

How I use this hub

I open one unit at a time, restate the core terms, and compare equations, circuits, code, and saved results.
