Course content
The basics and terminology of control theory. Introduction to differential equations. Mathematical models of some simple and well known physical processes are derived and presented. Control and simulations of these models will be demonstrated. Modeling with block diagrams. Introduction to Simulink. Introduction to dynamical systems.
Learning outcome
Knowledge:
Knowledge of the general architecture of a control system. Knowledge of modeling of physical systems using first and second order differential equations. Knowledge of controllers with P, I and D-action. Basic knowledge of the effects of nonlinearities on control systems. Knowledge of simulation of dynamical systems. Knowledge of control principles such as feedback and feed forward.
Skills:
Being able to analyze a dynamical system consisting of first or second order differential equations. Being able to design a (PID) controller for such a system. Being able to simulate such a system.
General competence:
The student should be able to communicate technical issues with both experts and laymen. Basic understanding of systems.
Learning methods and activities
Lectures, problem sets, laboratory assignments and a project work. Three out of five problem sets, the laboratory projects and the project work must be approved to enter the final exam.
Compulsory assignments
- Øvinger
Further on evaluation
The final grade is based on a portfolio assessment. The portfolio includes a project work 20% and a final exam 80%. The result for each part is given in percentage units, while evaluation of the entire portfolio (the final grade) is given as a letter.
If there is a re-sit examination, the examination form may change from written to oral.
In the case that the student receives an F/Fail as a final grade after both ordinary and re-sit exam, then the student must retake the course in its entirety. Submitted work that counts towards the final grade will also have to be retaken.
Specific conditions
Exam registration requires that class registration is approved in the same semester. Compulsory activities from previous semester may be approved by the department.
Recommended previous knowledge
None.
Course materials
