Bennett, Stuart (1984) Harold Hazen and the Theory and Design of Servomechanisms. Research Report. Acse Report 270 . Dept of Automatic Control and System Engineering. University of Sheffield
Abstract
Fifty years ago in September and October 1934, Harold Hazen published two papers in the Journal of the Franklin Institute, one on the theory of servomechanisms (Hazen 1934a) and the other on the design of a high performance servomechanism (Hazen 1934b). The first of these papers-the theory paper-must be ranked alongside the papers of Maxwell (1868), Routh (1877), Hurwitz (1895), Minorsky (1922) and Nyquist (1932) in its influence on the development of control engineering.
