Control Engineering: Control engineering or Control systems engineering is based on the foundations of feedback theory and linear system analysis, and it integrates the concepts of network theory and communication theory It is the engineering discipline that applies control theory to design systems with predictable behaviors
control system is to identify what can be automated It will help if you have an understanding of basic hydraulics, pneumatics, mechanical operating mechanisms, electronics, control sequences, etc and a solid knowledge of the operation or process that you are going to automate You should understand how to control motion and movement, regulate
Understand the purpose of control engineering Examine examples of control systems Understand the principles of modern control engineering Realize few design examples Textbook 1 Richard C Dorf and Robert H Bishop, Modern Control Systems, Prentice Hall, 2001 1 1 INTRODUCTION Control engineering is based on the foundations of feedback theory and
Examples of control systems used in industry Control theory is a relatively new field in engineering when compared with core topics, such as statics, dynamics, thermodynamics, etc Early examples of control systems were developed actually before the science was fully understood
Convenient (room temperature control, laundry machine) Dangerous (hot/cold places, space, bomb removal) Impossible for human (nanometer scale precision positioning, work inside the small space that human cannot enter) It exists in nature (human body temperature control) Lower cost, high efficiency, etc Many examples of control systems around us
Control Systems K Craig 22 • In a real sense, the problems of analysis and design of digital control systems are concerned with taking into account the effects of the sampling period, T, and the quantization size, q • If both T and q are extremely small (i e , sampling frequency 50 or more times the system bandwidth
