MEE 370 - System Dynamics and Introductory Control

This course introduces the students to the modeling and analysis of dynamic systems, including mechanical, electrical, and electromechanical systems, to understand their behavior and be able to design control systems systematically. The topics covered in this course include modeling of one-degree-of-freedom and two-degree-of-freedom mass-spring-damper systems, Laplace transforms and transfer function representation, block diagrams, dynamic response of first and second-order linear time-invariant systems, and design and analysis of feedback control systems.

Prerequisites: ECE 209, MAT 258, and a grade of C or better in MEE 270.

Course Typically Offered: Fall and Spring
