Control Systems 1 ENG722
Hobart
Introduction
This unit gives students an understanding of the fundamental principles involved in the modelling and control of linear systems. The topics to be covered will include: Introduction to control systems, mathematical models of systems, state variable models, feedback control system characteristics, the performance of feedback control systems, the stability of linear feedback systems, frequency response methods, stability in the frequency domain, and the design of feedback control systems. Assessment tasks in this unit written tests, one exam, two laboratory reports and a major design project which combines both written and oral communication of students’ practical learning experiences. Students who successfully complete this unit will be able to use their skills in the control of simple real-world processes.

Learning Outcomes
- Model electrical, mechanical, and electro-mechanical systems of varying complexity using differential equations and state-space representations.
- Determine the transfer functions of interconnected multi-input multi-output linear systems from block diagram representations.
- Formulate potentially conflicting design specifications in terms of the transient and steady-state performance of scalar and multivariable linear control systems.
- Design advanced control systems using multiple time and frequency domain criteria and Bode, Nyquist, and Routh Hurwitz stability considerations.
- Communicate the outcomes of advanced control system design studies.
