  6. Syllabus • Grading policy: • On-curve. It will be difficult to get 90+% on exams in this course. • Homeworks: 7. Homeworks contain both written and/or computer simulations using MATLAB. Submit code if it is part of the assignments. • Reading Assignments: After each course. The assigned reading material is given out in order to make you better understand the concepts. Materials from the reading assignments may be part of course exams. • Examinations: A midterm (take-home) and one final (in-class). • Course Project: Due on May 3, it will require a 8-10 page paper/report with an in-depth discussion on a research topic of interest for this course. Select a topic of interest early from a lisr and let me know what it is during office hours.

  8. Course Refresher • Math: linear/matrix algebra, trigonometry, differential equations. • Controls: stability, linear systems. • Programming: MATLAB

  9. Honor Code • Missed deadlines for take-home exams and homeworks: Maximum grade drops 15% per late day. Speak to me about missed deadlines for full credit in extenuating circumstances. • Academic Dishonesty will not be tolerated. All homeworks and exams are individual assignments. Your take-home exams and homeworks will be carefully scrutinized to ensure a fair grade for everyone. • Attendance and Drop Policy: Attendance is not mandatory. However, if you skip classes, you will find the homework and exams more difficult. Assignments are going to be posted here, however, due to the pace of the lectures, copying someone else's notes may be an unreliable way of making up an absence. You are responsible for all material covered in class regardless of absences.

  10. Lecture 1: Intro to Nonlinear Systems • Outline: • What are nonlinear systems and why is it important to study them. • Examples of nonlinear systems. • Basic concepts: what this course covers. • Review of concepts used in this course.

  11. Reading for Week 1 • Brief history of feedback control: http://www.theorem.net/theorem/lewis1.html • Chapter 1 from Slotine & Li text • Chapter 1 from H. Khalil text
