Control Theory 4 (Fall 2012)

Course code : EREG4-U1
ECTS Credits : 10 Status : Compulsory
Placement : 4. semester Hours per week : 8
Length : 1 semester Teaching Language : Danish and English

Principal Content : Dynamical systems and mathematical modelling:
Description of models for technical systems, such as electrical systems and other mixed systems. Analogies. Experimental modelling using frequency characteristics. Solution methods for mathematical models, including Laplace transformation. Time response and frequency response. Simulation and verification of mathematical models.
Basic control theory in engineering:
Analysis and design of feedback systems, block diagrams and reduction of multiple subsystems. Stability of feedback systems, in time- and in frequency- domains. DC-motor. Fundamentals of PID-controllers. Design of analogue- and digital-PID-controllers. Simulations in MATLAB/SIMULINK including most common nonlinearities.
Teaching method : In the beginning of the semester the teaching will be a mixture of classroom lecturing and problem work solving, including simulations with MATLAB and SIMULINK. This form makes up 50% to 75% of the scheduled time in the semester, distributed as 100% in the beginning of the semester and 0% towards the end of the semester. In relation to the contents of EREG4E two mandatory course assignments have to be carried out and documented in writing.
Required prequisites : Documented knowledge similar to all previous (1,2,3 semester) courses.
