Parametric nonlinear optimization tool for LTI systems

An optimization-based tool to facilitate LTI control design

This tool is an attempt at bridging the gap between relatively sophisticated LTI control design and ease of use. By formulating the control design problem as a non-linear optimization problem, the tool obtains parameters or solutions that force closed-loop system to meet specifications of settling time and damping ratio target. It is not limited to any one control structure.
