Control Engineering

Introduces analysis of feedback control systems under both transient and steady-state conditions. Examines utilization of signal flow graphs and Laplace transforms in the formulation of block diagrams and transfer functions for use in control system modeling. Reviews performance characteristics of feedback control systems. Analyzes the stability of feedback control systems using the Routh-Hurwitz criterion. Determines roots of the system transfer function characteristic equation using the root locus method. Evaluates steady-state response using frequency plots and measurement techniques. Introduces the Nyquist criterion and methods to improve system performance through compensation. Prereq. ETE 2103 and MTH 4243.
