Aims :

Students will learn analysis and synthesis methods and techniques for single-input-single-output continuous-time feedback control system, in time, frequency and Gauss variable domains; they will gain abilities in Frequency Response and Root Locus drawing and handling.

Topics :

The Control Problem. Continuous Time State Space Models (CTSSM), , finite dimension, time invariant, regular differential, linear; time evolution and trajectory. Response evaluation; state and output free response; state and output forced response; eigenvalues, eigenvectors and natural modes; Laplace transform use; poles and residuals vs. natural modes. Behavioural properties of CTSSM: stability, definition, conditions, Routh test; time and frequency domain steady state response(SSR) and transient response (TR); drawings of frequency domain SSR; elements of structural properties and state feedback synthesis. FCS structure and components. SISO system input-output model and analysis ; Nyquist theorem; SS in time domain: kind of a system, statism and astatism; SS in frequency domain; TR global parameters in time and frequency domain; parameters incertitude effects. Linear Industrial Regulators. FCS trial and error synthesis in frequency domain: Nichols diagram, elementary control functions. FCS trial and error synthesis in the Gauss variable domain; Root Locus and Root contour.

Exam :

The final summative evaluation consits of answering three questions relative each to any topic treated in the course; one of the question will ask for completely solving analysis/synthesis problems and in general will be answered in a specific time and place by all the participants to one examination session.

Tutorial Session :

Students will be met face-to-face, usually, Monday afternoon, from 4 p.m. on, at the professor bureau: e-mail requests will be answered in two days at the latest.
