Course Objectives This course aims to introduce the basic concepts, control principles and definitions of automatic control, transfer function, time domain analysis and stability of control systems. Automatic control is one of the basic necessary courses for teaching aerospace engineering students.
Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Be able to explain the basic concepts and principles of automatic control.
  • Be able to express various dynamic systems (mechanical, electrical, etc.).
  • Be able to obtain transfer functions and state space models of dynamic system.
  • Be able to define open loop and closed loop control systems.
  • Be able to analyze the stability of linear systems.
Course Description The course covers the topics of principles of control, open loop systems, closed loop systems, Laplace transform method, transfer functions and block diagrams, signal flow graphs, analysis of control systems in the time domain, time responses of systems, steady state error of systems, stability analysis of linear feedback control systems and the concept of stability.
