Feedback control systems

Course foundations:
Differential Equations,
Circuit Analysis 1 and 2,
Signals and Systems.
Previous exposure to the following will be required/helpful:
LTI systems and their properties,
Differential equations,
Laplace transforms,
Matlab/Simulink.
Course focuses on analysis of continuoustime dynamic systems and
design of feedback controllers.
Developing analysis skills is of primary importance.
Introduction of specialized applications is secondary.

Book

Text: Feedback Control of Dynamic Systems by G. F. Franklin, J. D.

Powell, A. E Naeini.
Suggested supplementary material: Feedback and Control for
Everyone by Pedro Albertos, Iven Mareels.
While all the slides are not from the book, the course is organized to
follow the book.
Some of the homework problems and exam questions come from the
book.
You will need to read additional information beyond the class notes.

How should I use the class materials?

Download lecture slides on a topic. Print the slides at 2 (or 3 or 4)

per page. Listen to the lecture and take notes on the printed pages.
After the lecture, go through the slides and your notes.
Work on the examples using the provided solutions.
Work on the examples without using solutions.
Work on the homework problems.
Questions in class are strongly encouraged. It is extremely difficult to
teach a course without some sort of real time feedback.

About homeworks and tests

Homework will not be accepted late. If you have a valid reason for
failing to meet deadlines, you should see me in advance.
Collaboration on homework is allowed, since one of the main
objectives of homework is to get you talking and thinking about the
material. Copying someone elses homework is just plain unethical.
First midterm exam: March 31st, 2015 (7th week), 10.4512.30
Second midterm exam: April 30th, 2015 (11th week), 9.4511.30
Final Exam: June 2nd, 2015, 10.4512.30
Tests are closed book and closed notes.
You are not allowed to use any calculator on the tests.
You are not allowed to use cell phones or other electronic equipment
during the tests.
Make sure your writing is neat, readable, and proceeds logically to the
solution if I cannot read it or make sense of it, you will NOT get
the points.

Contacting the instructor

Office hours are Friday morning or by appointment.

Send an email to enver@iyte.edu.tr or envertatlicioglu@iyte.edu.tr with
any questions related to the course. My response to your emails may
be delayed if I receive them during weekend or after 5PM during
weekdays.
It is generally not efficient to answer technical questions by email.
Office hours are provided to give a more interactive discussion.

Is this class hard?

Yes. You can learn it, but ...

Work on it as we go! You cannot catch up if you wait until the test!!!
If you get behind it may be hard to catch up.
Practice is the key to this class.
Work the problems!

Feedback control systems

I wont feel happy if a student
visits me after the Final exam, mentions that his/her GPA is 1.79 (or 1.99),
and asks for a grade bump;
or sends me email for the same purpose;
or sends me his/her parents for the same purpose.
