Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
- Justify the use of feedback as opposed to open loop control.
- Formulate the fundamental problem of feedback design.
- Derive the describing equations for simple dynamic systems and place a model in transfer function or state space format.
- Sketch the root locus of a transfer function and use the root locus technique for different parameters.
- Generated a root locus using computer-aided control system design tools.
- Relate pole zero locations of a system transfer function to time domain behaviour such as overshoot, steady state error, settling time and rise time.
- Design a classical PID controller and analyze the effect of each controller mode on the closed loop dynamic response.
- Implement anti-windup and bumpless transfer schemes as well as derivative filtering.
- Use the Bode and Nyquist diagrams for compensator design, stability analysis and sensitivity analysis via the frequency response.
- Describe the effects of dead time on the Bode and Nyquist diagrams.
- Design a state feedback controller using pole placement methods.
- Design a full order and reduced order observer for a given model.
- Solve the linear quadratic regulator problem to design a state space controller.
- Use computer aided design tools to help design control systems.
