Postgraduate

Description

The objectives of this subject are to develop students' skill in understanding fundamental principles in the analysis and control of mechatronic systems, familiarise students with different advanced control techniques and teach students to be able to apply computer-based tools for practical control system design applications. Topics include state-space modelling of linear and nonlinear systems, stability, controllability and observability, linear quadratic control, observer design, H-infinity control, model predictive control, neural network control and fuzzy logic control. Case studies of engineering applications are also covered.

Typical availability
