Dynamical systems are studied by using Matlab softare.
The course provides the basic notions regarding the theory of dynamical systems, their formal representation, the structural properties of systems and the concept of feedback.
At the end of the course, the student will be able: - to simulate simple physical systems in Matlab and to analyze their dynamic behavior and properties; - to implement fedback regulators and observers in Matlab.
Besides these learning outcomes, the student who actively participates to lessons and team working activities can acquire the following soft skills: - social skills – basic level: capacity to manage social interactions, collaborative behaviour, constructive communication in different environments; - capacity of learning to learn – basic level: awareness of the preferred learning stretegies, organization and evaluation of personal learning.
The teaching methods consist in team working activities in which the students, under the supervision of the professor, must implement tools for simulation, analysis, control and estimation of simple physical systems, in Matlab, in order to consolidate the knowledge acquired during the lectures and to develop critical thinking skills.
The team working activities allow the students who actively participate to acquire social skills (basic level) and the capacity of learning to learn (basic level).
Students who have valid certifications for Specific Learning Disorders (SLD), for disabilities or other educational needs are invited to contact the teacher and responsible office at the beginning of the course to agree on any teaching methods that, in compliance with the objectives of the course, take into account individual learning methods.
Working students are invited to contact the teacher at the beginning of the course to agree on any teaching methods and material for individual study.
Simulation of dynamical systems in Matlab Analysis of the system properties in Matlab Implementation of feedback regulators and observers in Matlab
On Aulaweb the students can find the support teaching material for implementations in Matlab.
Ricevimento: Students may contact the professor by Teams o by email (silvia.siri@unige.it).

During the oral exam the student must present a project assigned by the professor by discussing the implemented code and the obtained results.
Ask the professor for further information.
