Description

Laplace transforms, block diagrams, dynamic response, steady-state error analysis, stability, root locus plot, frequency response analysis.

Goals of the Course:
1. Create understanding and ability to interpret and solve problems using classical control methods for continuous time systems
2. Introduce the use of modern computer design tools such as MATLAB and demonstrate how they can be applied to real industry problems
3. The classical treatment of single input, single output (SISO) systems as well as basic control design methods
4. Concepts of stability and steady state performance, and the methods for analyzing them.
5. Knowledge of the impact of pole locations on performance and the metrics that quantify these locations.
6. Lay a theoretical and mathematical foundation for the analysis of advanced control systems

Prerequisites
