| Målsætning : | “Control Engineering” treats the methods and techniques used to control physical quantities in machines, process plants, houses, etc. The course gives both a theoretical and practical background in the formulation and solution of control problems within engineering systems. A student who has met the objectives of the course will be able to: • Select physical laws for description of simple dynamic system"s properties. • Derive mathematical models of mechanical, electrical, fluid and thermal systems and represent them in both block diagram and state-space form. • Carry out necessary manipulations on the mathematical models including linearization of nonlinear differential equations. • Derive transfer functions and state-space representation for linear systems. • Determine characteristic parameters for 1st and 2nd order systems. • Apply frequency response methods to linear systems. • Analyze open-loop and closed-loop systems based on transfer functions. • Evaluate the relation between the systems’ characteristic parameters and their time and frequency responses. • Carry out stability analysis of control systems. • Design and select standard controllers by analytical means and by empirical tuning. • Design of controllers utilizing state feedback. • Use the computer software MATLAB/Simulink for the analysis, design and simulation of control systems. |

| Hovedindhold : | Fundamental concepts in control systems with feedback. Formulation of models of physical systems. Differential equations. Linearization. Laplace transformation and transfer functions. State-space formulation. Root-locus and frequency analysis. Basic design methods in both the frequency domain and the time domain. Stability. Applications of standard controllers and compensators. The theoretical results of the course will be illustrated by practical examples. | ||
| Undervisningsform : | The teaching is based on "learning by doing". There will be introductory and summing up lectures. Project work in small groups includes tutorial exercises, assignments, lab exercises, computer simulations and case studies. | ||
| Krævede forudsætninger : | Applied Mathematics 1(ME-MAT1) or equivalent. | ||
| Anbefalede forudsætninger : | Applied Mechanics 2 (ME-MEC2). | ||
| Relationer : | Project 4 and the course Electronics Design (ME-ELD) in the 4th semester. | ||
| Prøveform : | Skriftlig 4-timers prøve | ||
| Censur : | Ekstern | ||
| Bedømmelse : | 7-trinsskala | ||
| Bemærkninger : | The final evaluation of each student will be based on four-hour written exam, where the use of laptops and MATLAB will be required for the exam. This course is an integrated part of the study program “Engineering Design & Industrial Innovation” offered by the Department of Mechanical Engineering. It is, however, relevant to other engineering students interested in topics such as the control of various quantities in power plants, chemical industry, in robots and steering systems for cars, ships and airplanes. |
