Dynamic Systems Modeling

Catalog description

A study of the modeling, simulation, and control of mechatronic systems. Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to: develop mathematical models of real systems; use techniques to analyze and understand systems behavior; use modern computational tools to simulate the dynamic response of systems to external stimuli; and design automatic control systems. Topics will include: dynamic models, linearity and nonlinearity of systems, multiport systems and bond graphs, basic bond graph elements, various types of mechanical and electrical systems, state-space equations and automated simulations, and analysis and control of linear systems.
