System Modelling: Linear, non-linear, time invariant, regulator and servomechanisms. Modelling system dynamics by transfer functions, block diagrams, root locus, Bode and Nyquist plots.

System Response: Transient response of second order systems. Steady state response, steady state errors, frequency response.

Stability: simple stability tests, Routh Hurwitz, root locus, Bode and Nyquist.

Controller Design: Performance specification, PID, lead and lag compensators.

Learning Objectives:

demonstrate a competence in assessing and improving the dynamic performance of continuous time systems using classical control systems analysis and design techniques.

Assessment by examination (50%-70%); on-course assessment (30%-50%).
