Leeruitkomsten

The student can:

develop and analyse 1st and 2nd order system models (focusing on mechanical and electrical systems) by means of, or resulting in the corresponding differential; equation; and can derive the transfer function of such systems, identifying their characteristic values;
construct system models using block diagrams, and identify the different forms of transfer functions;
determine the dynamic response of system components to different inputs and disturbances using the method of Laplace transforms and transfer functions;
use and apply basic methods for stability and error analysis in order to analyse steady state errors;
identify the poles and zeros of a dynamic system, and use these methods to analyse the stability behaviour of systems;
apply basic methods (e.g. proportional-integral-derivative control [PID]) to design feedback systems;
apply the concepts of frequency response to construct and interpret Bode diagrams;
calibrate a sensor and determine the transfer function of a sensor controlled process by comparing practical results to theory;
evaluate control error and control instability in a control system and relate this to theoretical considerations.

During this study unit you will have labs and theory.
