Automatic Control, Basic Course

Education facts

Code: TFRG95

<p>Control dynamic systems using feedback. In this course, you get an introduction to automatic control - sometimes called “the hidden technology” because it is present all around us without us thinking about it. </p><p>Automatic control is about making dynamic systems behave the way we want using feedback. </p><p>The course provides knowledge of the basic principles of control and gives insight into what can be achieved with control, as well as its possibilities and limitations. </p><p>You learn how to describe and analyse dynamical systems using representations such as transfer functions and frequency responses, including Bode and Nyquist diagrams. The course also covers properties such as stability, robustness, controllability and observability. </p><p>The course focuses on linear continuous-time systems and introduces how controllers can be designed and evaluated based on given specifications. </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p>
