The objectives of this course are to
1. Introduce students to the concept of control systems
and its applications in mechatronics.
2. Expose students to modelling of physical systems
and evaluating responses.
3. Familiarize students with control system analyses.
4. Introduce students to design controller for target
applications based on specified performances.
5. Familiarize students to the use of software tools for
control system analysis and design.
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
1. Construct physical and mathematical models of dynamic
systems using different modeling techniques.
2. Identify and explain basic control elements and their
functionality.
3. Analyze transient and steady state performances and
stability of control systems.
4. Design controller/compensator using root locus and
frequency response methods according to the desired
performances.
