"Control Tutorials for MATLAB and Simulink" Courseware

This set of modules contains control tutorials for MATLAB and Simulink, as well as course curriculum for a first course in system dynamics and control and a second more advanced controls course.

Control Tutorials for MATLAB and Simulink - Designed to help you learn how to use MATLAB and Simulink for the analysis and design of automatic control systems. They cover the basics of MATLAB and Simulink and introduce the most common classical and modern control design techniques.

System Dynamics and Control - Modeling of electrical, mechanical, and electromechanical systems. Analytic solution of open loop and feedback type systems. Root Locus methods in design of systems and evaluation of system performance. Time and frequency domain design of control systems.

Controls II - Advanced study of root locus analysis. Frequency response analysis. Design and compensation techniques. Control system analysis and design using state-space methods.

Learning Outcomes

Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to select, design, analyze, implement, and evaluate effective controllers for a number of different robotics platforms and applications.
