Content

Introduction to mathematical modeling using linear differential equations. Laplace transform. Transfer functions. Block diagrams. Time response of first and second order systems. Stability of feedback systems. Stability criteria. Standard controllers (P, PI, PID). State space representation. Linearization of nonlinear systems. Root locus. Frequency response.

Learning outcome

  • To understand the concept of mathematical modelling and simulation of systems described by differential equations.
  • Knowledge of the use of MATLAB to simulate systems
  • To understand the concept of negative feedback
  • To present mathematical models as block diagrams
  • To find transfer functions and to perform the frequency response analysis
  • To investigate stability issues and tune standard regulators (P, PI, PID).
  • To have a basic understanding of systems analysis and control design techniques.
  • To organize models as state space models and to perform linearization of nonlinear systems.

Method of work

The course will have eight hours of lectures per week, which will be used to cover the theoretical content of the course, to solve exercises, and for gamified recaps.

Between two and four student assistance sessions will be arranged each week, where the students can get help with solving the obligatory assignments.

Emneevaluering

There must be an early dialogue between the course supervisor, the student union representative and the students. The purpose is feedback from the students for changes and adjustments in the course for the current semester.In addition, a digital course evaluation must be carried out at least every three years. Its purpose is to gather the students experiences with the course.
