System Dynamics and Control Lab

Catalog description

Prerequisite(s): MENG 3350 . A hands-on, team-based environment, students design, implement, and evaluate controllers -- especially PID -- or real-world dynamic systems such as motors, pendulums, or servomechanisms. They model system dynamics, identify transfer functions or state-space representations, execute time- and frequency-domain testing, and analyze closed-loop responses using MATLAB/Simulink or equivalent tools.
