Course Objectives The main objective of this course is to provide a progressive treatment of dynamic systems suitable for all engineering students regardless of discipline. Particularly, this course aims to present a detailed treatment of modeling mechanical, electrical, electromechanical, thermal, and fluid systems by demonstrating the ways of obtaining analytical and computer solutions at an introductory, and higher, level.
Course Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • identify the variables, recognize the elements, and recall the interconnection laws in modeling translational, rotational, electrical, electromechanical, thermal, and fluid systems
  • construct modeling equations, the input-output equation, or the state-variable model for translational, rotational, electrical, electromechanical, thermal, and fluid systems
  • draw a block diagram from the differential equations of a system
  • implement a block diagram to the SIMULINK part of MATLAB
  • apply Laplace transform method for analytical solutions of linear models
  • employ transfer function analysis to complex systems with two or more energy-storing elements
  • linearize an element law and incorporate it into a system model
  • modify and simplify structure of block diagrams (to obtain transfer functions)
  • construct and analyze linear models of dynamic systems using MATLAB
  • outline feedback design and control protocols with MATLAB
Course Content Laplace transform function analysis; linearization; electromechanical systems; thermal systems; fluid systems; block diagrams and computer simulation; modeling, analysis, and design tools; feedback design
