Course Description:
This course provides an introduction to the fundamental techniques for analyzing and design-
ing linear time-invariant feedback control systems. Topics to be covered include: mathemat-
ical modeling of physical systems, transient and steady-state response analyses, second-order
systems, Routh-Hurwitz stability criterion, root-locus method, frequency-response methods,
Bode diagrams, Nyquist stability criterion, and proportional-integral-derivative (PID) con-
trollers.
Homeworks:
10 homeworks will be assigned, and MATLAB will be required to solve some of the homework
problems. Collaboration on homeworks is permitted, but the work you submit must be your
own. Late homeworks will not be accepted, except in unusual circumstances. Sloppy or hard-
to-read homeworks will receive low scores. Both homeworks and solutions will be distributed
in class and posted at http://learn.ou.edu.
Exams:
There will be two midterm exams and a cumulative final exam. Exam 1 is tentatively sched-
uled on Wednesday, 10/2/13, 2:30pm3:45pm at CEC 117. Exam 2 is tentatively scheduled on
Monday, 11/11/13, 2:30pm3:45pm at CEC 117. Final exam will be held on Monday, 12/9/13,
4:30pm6:30pm at CEC 117. Calculators will NOT be allowed on all the exams. The exams
will be closed-book and closed-notes, but you may bring one double-sided, 8.5 11 sheet of
notes. Makeup tests will not be given. If you miss a test and your absence is NOT officially
excused, then you will receive a zero grade for that test. If you miss a test and your absence
IS officially excused, then your final exam grade will be used in place of the missed test grade.
Grading:
Your final grades will be calculated as shown in the table below.
1
Homeworks 20%
Exam 1 25%
Exam 2 25%
Final Exam 30%
These numerical grades will be converted into letter grades using a curve that I will determine.
The same curve will be applied to everyone in the class.
Topics:
1. Introduction to Control Systems
2. Mathematical Modeling of Control Systems
3. Mathematical Modeling of Mechanical Systems and Electrical Systems
4. Transient and Steady-State Response Analyses
5. Control Systems Analysis and Design by the Root-Locus Method
6. Control Systems Analysis and Design by the Frequency-Response Method
7. Proportional-integral-derivative (PID) Controllers
Religious Holidays:
It is the policy of the University to excuse absences of students that result from religious ob-
servances and to provide without penalty for the rescheduling of examinations and additional
required classwork that may fall on religious holidays. It is the responsibility of the student
to make alternate arrangements with the instructor at least one week prior to the actual date
of the religious holiday.
