ECEN 4638/5638: Control Systems LaboratoryThis senior-level class听provides the opportunity to experience听the entire design cycle of a feedback control system. Students will be divided into听groups and听assigned a physical plant to control. Over the course of the semester, students will model听the system dynamics, identify听the model parameters, synthesize听a controller, perform听numerical validations, perform听experimental testing, and improve听their controller based on the observations. The class uses the 听modular platform to maximize the variety of control challenges while minimizing the overhead required for implementation. |
ECEN 5738: Theory of Nonlinear Systems
|
This sophomore-level听 course introduces fundamental听tools for the analysis of dynamic circuits. The class serves as an introduction for many key concepts of system听and control theory, including听Laplace transforms, transfer functions, frequency response, Bode diagrams, resonant behaviors, Fourier series expansions, and convolution.
This sophomore-level programming course introduces the programming basics for the use of MATLAB to solve typical engineering problems such as data visualization, matrix algebra, ordinary differential equations, signal decomposition, implicit听functions, and symbolic math. Students are given weekly quizzes and assignments to help monitor their progress and are required to develop听an original听project featuring an engineering-oriented application.
This graduate-level control course focuses on fundamental tools for the analysis and control of nonlinear systems. Featured topics include an overview of Nonlinear Dynamic Behaviors, Feedback Linearization, Lyapunov Stability, Passivity, Input-to-State Stability, and Small Gain Theorem. The theoretical results are contextualized using examples from real-world applications, which will be studied numerically using听MATLAB/Simulink.
