This course introduces the fundamental concepts of classic control theory. The course covers the following topics: basic characteristics of control systems, mathematical modeling of control systems and their components, the Laplace transform, transfer functions, block diagrams; transient response analysis and frequency response techniques including Bode and polar plots, stability analysis (poles and zeros, the Ruth-Hurwitz criterion, the root locus, the Nyquist criterion, phase and gain margin), feedback design using P-I-D control actions, phase-lead, phase-lag and phase lead-lag compensation. To complement the theory, students will be introduced to Matlab software for analysis and synthesis of feedback systems. Matlab/Simulink will also be used for implementation of basic concepts of control in weekly laboratory sessions.
