Examiner:
Docent Stefan Pettersson
Eligibility:
For single subject courses within Chalmers programmes the same eligibility requirements apply, as to the programme(s) that the course is part of.
Aim
The purpose of the course is to give knowledge and proficiency in:
- deviving mathematical models of technical systems
- the possibilities and limitations of feedback systems
- the applications of basic analysis and synthesis control methods
Content
Introduction: Examples of control problems, dynamic systems, open and closed loop control, compensation of disturbances, servo functions.
Dynamic models: Transfer functions, block diagrams, transient and frequency analysis, Bode plots. Principles of construction of dynamic models for technical systems. State space models, nonlinearities, linearisation.
Analysis of feedback systems: Stability, the Nyquist criterion, stability margins, sensitivity. Performance and accuracy, transient and stationary performances, specification in the time and frequency domains.
Design of control systems: Fundamental principles of controller design, possibilities and limitations depending on interference between different frequency areas. Design of PI and PID controllers, cascade- and feedforward control.
Implementation: Brief theory of discrete-time systems, digital implementation based on analogue design.
Laboratory sessions: Tuning of a PID controller for a tank process, application exercises on computer using MATLAB.
Literature
B Lennartson: Reglerteknikens grunder, Studentlitteratur 2002.
Examination
Written examination, approved laboratory lessons and hand-in exercises.
