Aims and Scope
The main objective
of this course is to enable students become familiar with the structure and methodologies
of Automatic Control Theory and to acquire both study and practice skills relative
with its application in manufacturing and energy systems.
The aims of
the theoretical part of this course are the following:
Α) The teaching
of the classic and modern methodologies conditioning the Systems Analysis in both
Time and Frequency domains.
Β) The teaching
of the classic and modern methodologies conditioning the Systems Design in both
Time and Frequency domains.
The aims of
the laboratory part of this course are the following:
Α) The acquisition
of experience and skills on the Automatic Control of Systems by using either
analogue or digital control units.
Β) The acquisition of experience and skills on the
use of dedicated software for the simulation, the study and the control of
systems and the design of control schemes.
Course Description

to Automatic Control Systems. Explanation of key concepts. Understanding the process
of the mathematical description and study of systems by using either transfer functions
or state equations. Analysis of the characteristic
features of both transient and steady state. Application of Laplace
Transformation in Automatic Control Systems. Analysis of basic structural
elements of Automatic Control Systems. Analysis of Electrical, Mechanical,
Hydraulic and Pneumatic Automatic Control Systems. Analysis of the representation
of Automatic Control Systems by using block diagrams. Explanation of process of
finding the transfer functions of complex Automatic Control Systems. Study of the
process of investigating the systems stability by using algebraic criteria.
Study of the process of investigating the systems stability by using Bode and
Nyquist plots. Analysis of the Root Locus Method. Investigation of Systems Controllability
and Observability through the application of relative criteria. Application of
Output Feedback Control. Application of State Feedback Control. Introduction to
PID controllers.
Laboratory: Acquisition of experience and skills on the operation
Electrical, Mechanical, Hydraulic and Pneumatic Automatic Control Systems.
Familiarity with the instruments and devices used in Automatic Control Systems.
Acquisition of basic knowledge and experience in computer aided systems
control. Acquisition of experience and skills on the use of appropriate software
(Matlab/Simulink) for the simulation of systems, the study and control of their
dynamic behavior and the design of controllers.
Expected Course Outcome
