SYS 6012

Course Description

Introduces modeling, analysis, and control of dynamic systems, using ordinary differential and difference equations. Emphasizes the properties of mathematical representations of systems, the methods used to analyze mathematical models, and the translation of concrete situations into appropriate mathematical forms. Primary coverage includes ordinary linear differential and difference equation models, transform methods and concepts from classical control theory, state-variable methods and concepts from modern control theory, and continuous system simulation. Applications are drawn from social, economic, managerial, and physical systems. Cross-listed as MAE 6620.
