Catalog Course Description
Examples of physical and abstract systems and their mathematical models. Classification of dynamic system models linearity and time invariance ; finite state discrete event systems. Tools of analysis for linear systems : transform techniques, input-output analysis, block diagrams, frequency response representation. Introduction to stability and closed loop system design. Introduction to supervisory control for discrete event systems.
Course Learning Outcomes:
| 1. | Develop mathematical models of dynamical systems such as mechanical, electrical and electromechanical systems using differential equations based on first principles |
|---|---|
| 2. | Analyze dynamical systems in both frequency and time domains using transfer functions and state-space representations |
| 3. | Construct Matlab/Simulink models of dynamical systems and simulate them with different inputs and initial conditions. |
| 4. | Check the stability of LTI systems and obtain conditions for the stability of open loop and closed loop (feedback) control systems |
| 5. | Statistical characterization of external disturbances and measurement noise |
| 6. | Analyze simple PID control systems and evaluate the controller performance |
Course Objective
Develop mathematical models of dynamical systems and control them through various controllers to obtain desired performance.
