Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

• Imagine, implement and operate systems/solutions/software to address a complex problem in the field of electrical engineering as a source of information by integrating needs, contexts and issues (technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental).
• Identify complex problems to be solved and formulate the specifications by integrating client needs, contexts and issues (technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental).
• Based on modelling and experimentation, design one or more systems/solutions/software addressing the problem raised; evaluate them in light of various parameters of the specifications.
• Implement a chosen system/solution/software in the form of a drawing, a schema, a flowchart, an algorithm, a plan, a model, a prototype, software and/or digital model.
• Evaluate the approach and results for their adaptation (tests, measurements, optimisation and quality).
• Mobilise a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out electrical engineering missions, using their expertise and adaptability.
• Master and appropriately mobilise knowledge, models, methods and techniques specific to electrical engineering.
• Analyse and model a problem by critically selecting theories and methodological approaches (modelling, calculations), and taking into account multidisciplinary aspects.

Learning Outcomes of UE

implement continuous/discrete time PID controllers; optimize PID design; compute and implement other types of controllers and/or other control structures; use root locus method for controller design; design a model-based control loop; design digital control loop using stability/accuracy/dynamic performance concepts;

Content of UE

For continuous time control: PID tuning, analysis and tuning of other controllers, design of controllers for disturbance compensation, anti wind-up compensation systems, root locus, cascade control, Smith predictor. For discrete time control: z transform, equivalent z transfer function, stability, accuracy, design of discrete time controller.

Prior Experience

Basic knowledge in continuous time control of industrial processes and, particularly, for SISO (single input single output) systems.
