ME 388: Industrial Control
Systems
Summary:
The study of industrial
control techniques by case studies of actual industrial systems;
provides competence in the design, selection, and maintenance of industrial
control systems; and introduces applications to electromechanical, pneumatic,
thermal, and hydraulic systems. Topics include:
-
Introduction to computer controlled
systems software and hardware of control systems
-
Modeling of dynamical systems
by integral causality, state equations
-
Time domain analysis of linear
time invariant continuous-time and discrete-time systems, discrete-time
representation of computer interfaced continuous-time systems
-
Laplace transform and Z transform,
transfer functions
-
Control system design by root
locus method, PID controllers and Ziegler-Nichols method, approximation
of analog controller by digital controller and Tustin transform
-
Frequency domain analysis of
control systems, Bode plots, Nichols log-modulus plots, Nyquist stability
criterion, digital signal aliasing and discrete frequency response
-
Frequency domain design of control
systems, lead and lag compensations, phase and gain margins
-
System identification using
frequency and time response methods
-
A selection of case applications
of closed loop systems is given in each topic
