Course Objectives

The students will learn systems theory of dynamic systems, and process control.

Course Description

Importance of control engineering for solving industrial and environmental problems. Mathematical modelling of physical processes. System theory of dynamic systems. PID control. Cascade control. Feedforward control. Control structures for industrial processes. Sequential control. Automation technology. PC-based measurement and control with LabVIEW.

Learning Methods

Lectures. Theoretical exercises. Computer exercises. Laboratory assignment. Project.

Assessment Methods

Individual written final examination counts for 100% of the final grade. To obtain higher final grade than F, the project and the laboratory assignment must be accomplished satisfactorily.

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