2012-2013 Catalog Data: Discrete modeling and analysis of dynamic physical systems in Mechanical Engineering. Sampling and data conversion and reconstruction. Real time implementation of control on a computer. Digital controller design and implementation. Laboratory exercises in control applications and design. Pr.: ME 570 or ECE 530. Digital Control System Analysis and Design, Third Ed. By Charles L. Phillips and H. Troy Nagle, Prentice Hall, 1995, ISBN-10: 013309832X. Tests (2) 30% Final/Project 30% Laboratory Exercises 20% Homework 20% TOTAL 100% To design digital controllers for mechanical systems and to appreciate when such designs are necessary. To this end, the course will concentrate on the mathematical basis for discrete signals and their frequency domain transformations. The application of state variable theory to discrete systems and the translation of continuous time design tools into the discrete domain will be presented together with their use. Trade-offs in control algorithms for computation speed and quantization effects will be discussed. Design will concentrate on classical compensation techniques as well as pole placement and some optimal control.

LABORATORY:

The laboratory will concentrate on real-time implementation, limitations of sampled data, applying digital control to position and velocity control problems, accommodating computational delays with the modified z transform, and determining the digital continuous time boundary.
