ETME 3110 - Control Systems Technology

(3) Credit Hours

Classical control system concepts including block diagrams, transfer functions, stability and damping including measurement, actuation, and control elements used in systems. Frequency response analysis, gain, and phase margin. Stability criterion and root locus. Controller assessment and selection using ultimate gain and process reaction. Influence of nonlinearities and lags on system performance. Laboratory experiences will demonstrate real-world applications and usage of software tools for analysis and design. Lecture 2 hours, laboratory 3 hours. Prerequisites: MATH 1950 or department head approval. Differential Course Fee will be assessed.
