Course Catalog 2012-2013
ASE-1257 Introduction to Control, 4 cr |
Additional information
The course is available only for the MSc program of Machine Automation (MA). Its contact teaching hours (of 11 lectures, 11 exercises and compulsory PC exercises) are included in those of ASE-1256, and a student of ASE-1257 should also register for ASE-1256. MA students are also welcome to whole ASE-1256 but can get the credit points from only one of the courses ASE-1257, ASE-1256, ASE-1250. The material may vary from year to year and is specified within POP of ASE-1256. Active participation in the last lecture and last exercise frees on from examination of their topic. Additional weekly exercise hour available for repetition of old and new knowledge. Extra points are available from e.g. an voluntary PC session.

Learning outcomes
After the course the student knows the potential and limitations of decision & control both within and beyond actual control engineering ; knows typical control structures as well as connections and the roles nature of the control system components; can derive simple dynamical models, simplify models and perform model conversations; masters typical system terms and concepts including performance specifications; is able to describe and analyze control systems and other dynamical systems; understands , and can analyze and even limitedly design stability, damping, accuracy and speed of systems with standard methods; is able to analyze potential stability and performance risks due to uncertainty and guard against them ; can exploit use Matlab, Simulink, Control System Toolbox and Symbolic Toolbox or another similar enough software in the tasks mentioned is able to communicate on these things with students and engineers educated elsewhere.
