About Control Systems Analysis: Modeling of Dynamic Systems course
In this course, you'll explore modeling of dynamic systems and feedback control. The course begins with an introduction of control theory and the application of Laplace transforms in solving differential equations, providing a strong foundation in linearity, time-invariance, and dynamic system modeling. The following week will delve into the laws governing the modeling of dynamic systems, with a focus on deriving differential equations from fundamental principles like Newton's laws and Kirchhoff's laws, as well as mastering the representation of systems as transfer functions in the Laplace domain. The third week delves deeper into Laplace transforms, emphasizing initial/final value theorems, block diagram manipulation, and dynamic response analysis. Moving into the fourth week, you'll learn to analyze system performance using transient step response specifications, enabling you to assess and optimize system behavior effectively. Finally, in the fifth week, you'll explore Bounded-Input Bounded-Output (BIBO) stability and Routh's stability criterion, gaining the skills to assess, analyze, and design stable systems. By the course's end, you'll be well-equipped to navigate the intricacies of control systems and dynamic modeling.
