-
3.00 Credits
Analysis of design techniques in modern control theory are presented. State space concepts, digital control, and adaptive control methods are covered, along with information on practical implementation problems experienced with these control techniques. Graduate standing or special permission. (YR).
-
3.00 Credits
Mechatronics, as an engineering discipline, is the synergistic combination of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, control engineering, and computer science, all integrated through the design process. The course is to establish a working familiarity with the key engineering elements in the design and control of electro-mechanical systems in general and automotive systems in particular. The key engineering elements include microprocessor technology, electronics, sensors and actuators, data communication and interface, control algorithms, and mechanisms of machine elements. The course is to introduce a design methodology in an integrated system environment through case studies and design projects. (AY).
-
3.00 Credits
