Mathematical and physical bases. In particular:

-Use of functions of real and complex variables

-Resolution of linear differential equations with constant coefficients

-Applications of the Laplace transform

-Fundamental laws of the classical mechanics of the hydraulics and electricity

Aims and Objectives

Theory: This part concerns the survey of the linear systems controlled in a continuous manner.

Applications: To apply techniques taught in the theoretical course.

Description

Theory: Notions on signals in continuous time; The analogical dynamic systems:; Tools of analysis and calculation of the time response by: Convolution - Laplace Transform; Transfer functions performances: Time response analysis, frequency response analysis and root locus analysis; Control :, industrial regulators; Analogical correction.

Applications: Before experimentation, the students have the possibility to familiarize themselves with exercises of synthesis allowing them to deepen matters seen in the theoretical course. The experimentation takes place with the help of real either simulated industrial processes. Some classical examples of control: position regulation, mechanical regulation of rotation speed, temperature regulation.

Students are also brought to familiarize themselves with regulators of industrial type as for example the PID.
