ME-UY 3413 Automatic Control

3 Credits

The course examines dynamic system modeling, analysis and feedback control design with extensive, hands-on computer simulation. Topics: Modeling and analysis of dynamic systems. Description of interconnected systems via transfer functions and block/signal flow diagrams. System response characterization as transient and steady-state responses and error considerations. Stability of dynamical systems: Routh- Hurwitz criterion and Nyquist criterion. Graphical methods for dynamical system analysis and design: root locus and Bode plot. Computeraided feedback control design for mechanical, aerospace, robotic, thermo-fluid and vibratory systems.
