- Educational objectives
- The purpose of the course is to introduce the main issues and engineering tools related to the design of management and control systems for manufacturing processes, in the broader context of dynamical systems. Specifically, the following topics will be discussed: modeling and simulation of dynamical systems; methodological tools for stability analysis; input-output behavior and performance; feedback control synthesis. Teaching activities include class exercises on simulated models of interests for management engineering.
- Prerequisites
- Basic courses in mathematics and physics; knowledge in the areas of matrix calculus and complex analysis.
- Teaching methods
- Lessons, exercises, and laboratory.
- Other information
- --
- Learning verification modality
- Written and oral test.
