Credit points:	03
Year:	2010
Student Contribution Band:	Band 2
Administered by:	School of Engineering

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 Outcomes

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