Learning outcomes |
The objectives of this curricular unit are: to acquire skills in classical topics of control systems and automation, such as for example: the time domain and the frequency domain analysis of systems, the design of control systems, PID controllers, the stability and the robustness of dynamical systems; as well as to obtain a good introduction to the modern control, in the description of systems in state equations. The competences to be acquired by the students are related to understanding the fundamental concepts and being able to design control systems and automation.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The theoretical component (T) aims to transmit theoretical knowledge. The theoretical-practical componente intended to be carried out by a monitoring approach, helping the students to achieve a practical knowledge, and are dedicated to the resolution of exercises and laboratory works.
Students will develop their learning process not only by their attendance in class, but also in a self-sustaining learning, appealing to the pedagogical materials as books and handouts, websites, and, in laboratory practice, using software packages.
Students are evaluated in the theoretical component (T) through a written test (CFreq). In the theoretical-practical component (TP) students are evaluated through 4 mini-tests.
The final classification (CFinal) will be: CFinal=70% (T or Exam) + 30% (TP).
The formula for calculating the final classification (CFinal) is valid for all assessment moments.
