Description: | This course is an introduction to feedback control. Topics include the modelling of physical systems, the analysis of their dynamic behavior (dynamic response and stability), and the design of feedback controllers to achieve a desired closed-loop system behavior. The objective of this course is to provide a solid foundation of the concepts and methods of classical control theory so that students will have the ability to design and analyze linear feedback systems involving a single input and single output. Additionally, state-space methods are introduced so that students will have the background for future, more detailed studies of this topic. >> Course Catalogue Information |
