CODE 65985 ACADEMIC YEAR 2017/2018 CREDITS 6 cfu anno 3 INGEGNERIA MECCANICA 8720 (L-9) - SCIENTIFIC DISCIPLINARY SECTOR ING-IND/13 LANGUAGE Italian TEACHING LOCATION SEMESTER 1° Semester OVERVIEW The course provides the basics for the study of the dynamics of mechanical systems with linear models and of the synthesis of control systems. AIMS AND CONTENT LEARNING OUTCOMES The course aims to: provide the tools for the study of the dynamics of mechanical systems by means of linear models, with single input and single output, introducing the concepts of open-loop and closed-loop systems; teach the criteria for the evaluation of servo systems and their control; present the basics of analog, digital and mixed automation systems. TEACHING METHODS Theoretical lessons integrated with examples and exercises. The students can extend the exercitations by means of MatLab. SYLLABUS/CONTENT General introduction and presentation of the feedback concept (open loop / closed loop) Linear systems: differential equations, natural response, forced response in transient and steady state Laplace transform Complex numbers, ratios of polynomials with real coefficients and their decomposition Transfer function, poles, zeroes and stability Frequency response Bode diagram and its asymptotic tracking Transfer function in closed loop Stability of closed loop systems Phase margin and Gain margin System errors and system types Specifications for controlled systems Types of regulators Method of the root locus Brief explanation of logical networks, PLC and axis control RECOMMENDED READING/BIBLIOGRAPHY The lessons are available on Aulaweb. It’s highly recommended to attend the course. For auxiliary integrations: Control Engineering – an introductory course – J. Wilkie, M. Johnson, R.
