COURSE DESCRIPTION

Course Objectives

Automatic control plays an important role in the advance of the intelligence for space-vehicle, missile guidance systems, robotics, automobile, airplane and so on. This course covers differential equations for physical systems and their solution, Laplace transformations, block diagram and transfer function, system response, system analysis and stability, system compensation and design, application of control system theory to engineering design of dynamic systems. Through the team project, students will experience the design process of the automatic control system and improve their cooperative spirit.

MAIN TEXTBOOK and FURTHER READINGS

Text book: Modern Control Engineering, fourth edition, K. Ogata, Prentice Hall, Inc. 2002

Reference: Modern Control Systems, R. C. Dorf and R. H. Bishop, Addison Wesley.

ASSIGNMENTS AND GRADING

Assignments: After each chapter, one homework assignment will be given.

For the design project of a control system, each team consists of 3-5 students.

The members of each team cooperate to synthesize a control system, to accomplish their own objective and to analyze the controller.

Grading Scheme: Attendance(10%), Mid-term Exam(30%), Final Exam(30%), Assignments(30% +alpa)
