1.1 Course Description

Dynamic Modelling, Optimization and Control is a combination of number of courses oered to the undergraduate and postgraduate students at the Instrumentation and Control department of the College of Engineering, Pune. These courses include IE401 Process Instrumentation, IE416 Process Modelling and Optimization, and IE5110 Process Dynamics and Identication. Refer to the updated curriculum for the detailed description of these courses. This course introduces students to the fundamental principles and systematic activities of systems engineering that include process modelling, optimization and control. The classroom theory and laboratory hours are dedicated to the understanding of basic concepts involved in designing and analyzing systems and processes by using dynamic mathematical models developed from knowing the underlined scientic and process phenomena as well as by means of parameter identication of empirical information. Course covers number of numerical techniques and optimization methods to solve design, decision making and control problems. Rigorous exercises are assigned to develop the skills in using computational tools and instrumentation to achieve process automation. for A semester long design project culminating in a written report is designed to help develop sound understanding and hands on experience.

Aim and Objectives

Upon completion of this class students will be able to Understand design concepts of instruments and process equipments. Build data acquisition system for variety of sensors. Analyze and manipulate response of actuators. Understand and implement data communication and transition protocols. Systematically analyze process plants using mathematical modeling. techniques Develop empirical models of complex plants using parametric identication methods. Write objectives and their cost functions for optimal plant operations. Formulate and solve optimization problems. Finally, be able to control and operate process plants to achieve key performance indicators such as settling time, disturbance attenuation, cost, safety and desired product quality while keeping in mind environmental impact and uncertainty.

submitted on every Monday morning before the class begins. Additionally, there will be special laboratory assignments which must be submitted every fortnight. Finally, examinations will be conducted at the end of every month. Three weeks of time will be given to submit the take home exam. Overall grading policy is as follows. Activities Final Exam Midterm Exam Take Home Exam Homework Contributions to Class (Bonus) Class participation Submission of Quality Results Fair Play Award (Bonus) Arrival on Time 100% Attendance Character and Values 5% Percentage 40% 30% 10% 10% 5%

Note that the late submission to cost 5 marks per hour late. Also note that bonus points awarded for contribution to the class and overall code of conduct. Original thinking and implementation of theoretical concepts to your own research, novel problem formulation and its solution will be awarded additional bonus points.

1.6

Honor Policy

You are expected to work independently on your home works and exams. On the contrary laboratory assignments, take home exams and projects are group activities and you are recommended to form appropriate study groups and collaborate on assigned tasks. Team activities and and discussions are highly encouraged but you must submit your original work. Praiseworthy ethical standards and professional practices are expected from every student. Feel free to discuss your diculties with Amit, but by no means cheap malpractices will be allowed.
