Review: This book is written for process control students, providing them with the practical tools of the mathematics that is used in the field to get them through the curriculum. It explains: basic trigonometry, differential and integral calculus, infinite series, complex quantities, differential equations, Laplace transforms, frequency response analysis, and transfer functions and block diagrams. The history and current use of the Zeigler–Nichols (Z–N) approximation in providing field tests that are acceptable to plant operators is described in detail.
