Basics of Control SystemsLaajuus (2 cr)

Code: TSAA0540

Credits

2 op

Teaching language

  • Finnish

Responsible person

  • Ari Kuisma

Objective

You will get to know the key topic in the field, ie control technology. With the help of the control technology, the equipment is made to react as correctly as possible, e.g. various process disturbances or changes in driving situations. This course allows for a more in-depth study of the subject in other courses.

EUR-ACE KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
You will recognize the different structures of control systems and understand the challenges associated with tuning control circuits and know the methods for tuning them.

EUR-ACE ENGINEERING PRACTICE
You can define the parameters needed to tune the control circuits and you can tune a simple control circuit.

Content

structures and properties of simple control circuits
MATLAB / SIMULINK modeling and simulation software for dynamic system modeling
control methods
measuring and optimizing control performance
