    Abstract:

    Department of Electrical Engineering Syllabus of Control Systems lab. 20135 Academic Year: 2016 No. of course hours: 3 hours (lab 3), 1.5 academic credits Prerequisites: Introduction to Control System Objectives The course deepens the tools, both theoretical and (mainly) practical, which were acquired in "Introduction to control systems", regarding analysis and design of continuous linear control systems. The students conduct experiments and a project in open-loop and closed-loop control systems. Abstract The course deepens, both theoretical and (mainly) practical, the tools which were acquired in "Introduction to control systems", regarding analysis and design of continuous linear control systems. In the first experiments the students calculate transfer functions (out of step response and frequency response), analyze system statics and dynamics, and distinguish between linear characteristics and nonlinear ones. Afterwards, both open-loop and closed-loop control systems are studied: angular velocity control and angle control. Different controllers are studied - their effects on steady state errors, damping coefficient, roots locations, frequency response, etc. A project is also conducted. Labs topics by weeks* Topic Week  Learning about components of speed control system 1,2  Controllers: P, I, D, PI, PD, PID 3  Open loop speed control system, finding transfer function of DC motor and tachometer devices. 4  Closed loop speed control system using different controllers. 5  Matlab-Simulink simulation of Ziegler–Nichols method. 6  Control systems tuning according to Ziegler–Nichols \ Cohen-Kun method. 7  Angle position control system (open loop and closed loop). 8  Matlab/Simulink simulation of inverted pendulum stabilization and controller design. 9  Inverted pendulum stabilization experiment, using a PID controller. 10  Altitude control of a metal ball in a magnetic field – experiment. 11  Project. 12,13  * The order of the topics can be changed at the lab instructor's / tutor's discretion.
