Course Objectives

Students will gain basic knowledge of dynamic systems and practical control engineering.

Course Description

Systems theory: Mathematical modelling with differential equation models and transfer function models. Response calculation with Laplace transformation. Dynamic systems.

Automation: Feedback control using PID controller. Feedforward control. Cascade control. Automation equipment.

Learning Methods

Lectures. Self-study. Calculations. PC assignments. Laboratory assignment.

Assessment Methods

Individual written final examination counts for 70% of the final grade. Project assignment count 30%. Both the written examination and the project assignment must receive passing marks in order to receive a higher grade than F.

Compulsory laboratory work must be passed to obtain final grade higher than F.

Minor adjustments may occur during the academic year, subject to the decision of the Dean
