Learning outcomes of the course unit
Acquired knowledge enables students to solve dynamic systems in the time domain as well as in the frequency domain, to design feedback controllers with a prescribed behavior of the closed loop, application for a position control of servodrives for NC machines and robots
Prerequisites
Linear differential equations, matrix calculus, principles of electrical engineering, mechanics, electrical servodrives
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline. Teaching is suplemented by practical laboratory work.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes
The course-unit credit is awarded on condition of having to elaborated given problems. Individual solution is expected applying program MATLAB/SIMULINK. Examination has a written and an oral part.
Aims
The goal of the subject is to provide students with basic knowledge of control theory of dynamical systems and its application to control mechatronic and robotic systems by a feedback controller.
Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences
Attendance at practical training is obligatory.
