This book is a collection of practical applications of MATLAB across several key engineering domains. It is designed not primarily as a programming textbook but as a reference and application-oriented compendium showing how MATLAB (and related toolboxes) is used to solve real problems in control systems, electrical engineering, IT systems, vehicle dynamics, robotics, and related fields.

🎯 Purpose and Audience

The book is intended for:

• Engineering students (especially in control, electrical, and robotics disciplines)

• Researchers and professionals looking for real engineering applications of MATLAB

• Practitioners wanting examples of MATLAB in modeling, simulation, and analysis

Rather than teaching MATLAB from scratch, it illustrates how MATLAB tools are applied in specific technical problems, often accompanied by models, simulations and MATLAB code examples.

📚 Structure and Contents

The book is organized into multiple parts or sections, each focusing on a different application area. It contains chapters authored by experts from academia and industry, and most chapters provide both theoretical background and MATLAB practical implementations.
