Subject description

Presentation of control design purposes, control structures and cyclic control design approach

Survey of basic control system presentations (mathematical and graphical), transformations between them and analysis

Computer aided analysis and design using MATLAB with Simulink and Control System Toolbox

Description of control design quality criterion in time and frequency domain

Presentation of important control design structures and methods (on-off controllers, PID controllers, PID – tuning, root – locus analysis, Routh’s criterion of stability, lead and lag controller design in frequency domain, optimization using simulation)

Case studies of control design using laboratory pilot plants

Objectives

Course goals are:

  • to present the reasons for the realization of system control (open and closed – loop),
  • to present the extend usage of control systems and the multidisciplinary nature of this scientific field,
  • to describe basic control algorithms of continuous systems,
  • to present cyclic procedure of control design,
  • to present the usage of MATLAB with Simulink and Control System Toolbox in the field of computer aided control design.

Teaching and learning methods

Lectures, homeworks, laboratory exercises, possibility of cooperation in seminar and project student's work, participation in excursions visiting industrial enterprices
