Mathematical Models SYSTEMS AND CONTROL I ECE 09.321 09/04/07 – Lecture 1 ROWAN UNIVERSITY College of Engineering Prof. John Colton DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRICAL & COMPUTER ENGINEERING Fall 2007 - Semester One
Welcome to Systems and Control I Course Learning Objectives • Develop mathematical tools for analysis and design of modern feedback control systems • Apply these tools to many types of closed loop feedback control systems, evaluating the beneficial effects that feedback provides for steady–state and transient performance of these systems • Evaluate the beneficial implications of feedback on system performance, including sensitivity to parameter variation, tracking, and disturbance rejection • Develop the design criteria and tools for optimizing closed loop system performance and ensuring system stability • Develop tools for frequency response analysis and design of feedback control systems. • Use MATLAB for assignments and lab projects to supplement direct calculations
Systems and Control I Topics • Historical Perspective • Mathematical models and tools: differential equations of physical systems, Laplace transforms, convolution integral and impulse response, transfer functions, block diagram manipulation, and signal flow graphs • Closed loop system performance: sensitivity reduction, disturbance rejection, transient performance and steady-state error, use of s-plane for analysis and design, cost of feedback, design criteria and tools, frequency response methods • Stability of feedback control systems: stability concepts, Routh-Hurwitz Stability Criterion, root locus design methods, Bode diagrams, phase and gain margin, Nyquist stability criterion • Design of feedback control systems

Quotable Quotes • “Take warning! Alternating currents are dangerous! They are fit only for powering the electric chair. The only similarity between an AC and a DC lighting system is that they both start from the same coal pile.” Thomas Edison – Pamphlet of 1887 • “Heavier than air flying machines are impossible” Lord Kelvin – Royal Society 1895 • “There is no likelihood man can ever tap the power of the atom” Robert Milliken Nobel Laureate Physics 1923
