COM4LAB Course: Applied Modern Control Engineering

The COM4LAB course entitled “Applied Modern Control Engineering” is the third and final course on the control engineering. The approaches of modern control strategies for the control of complex systems (e. g. in the automotive industry or aerospace) as well as the influence of technical limitations on the control loops are explained and practically devised using a number of experiments. The final chapter offers the possibility for free experimentation with compatible external controlled systems. The course comprises 10 chapters.

The course covers the following topics:

• systems with dead time
• constraint of the manipulated variable
• cascade control
• introduction to frequency response
• frequency response of individual basic elements
• frequency response of combined elements
• controller desing in frequency domain
• fuzzy control
• adaptive control
• free experimentation with external controlled systems

The course …

• can be displayed and filled out on your own tablet/smartphone/laptop.
• is platform-independent - a current browser is sufficient.
• can be distributed to students via QR codes.
• enables interactive experimenting: The measured values from the Master Unit are automatically made available for evaluation in tables and diagrams. The analysis and documentation of the experiment on the student device can be done at school or at home.
• can be edited and thus adapted to your own lesson plan.
