Course detail

Simulation of Dynamic Systems

FSI-FSI Acad. year: 2025/2026 Winter semester

Modeling and Simulation is a discipline for developing a level of understanding of the interaction of the parts of a system, and of the system as a whole. The course is focused to continues, discrete and hybrid simulation. Modeling and simulating complex electromechanical systems.  Design of simulation experiments, model-based design, visualization and verification of simulation results.

Language of instruction

Czech

Number of ECTS credits

5

Entry knowledge

Fundamentals of mathematics, including differential and integral calculus of functions in one and more variables and solution of system differential equations. Fundamentals of physics, mechanics, electrical engineering and automatic control, knowledge of programming techniques in environment C/C++ and Matlab.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

Course-unit credit is conditional on completing of computer projects. Exam has a written and an oral part and tests students’ knowledge of the subject-matter covered in the course.
Attendance at seminars is checked by means of projects.

Aims

The aim of the course is to make students familiar with the methods and selected software supporting the computer simulation.
Students will be able to use software methods and applications for simulation.

Syllabus

Computer labs (exercises) are consistent with the content of lectures. The aim of the labs is to introduce students to practical part of the course above all using Matlab/Simulink system.
The labs are divided into nine parts (modeling and simulation):
a) Mechanical systems
b) Electro-mechanical systems
c) Control systems
