Recommended Feedback Control of Dynamic Systems by Franklin & Powell
Book(s): 6th edition
Reference Book(s): Modern Control Systems (8th Edition) By Dorf and Bishop,
Control System Design by Chen
Course Objectives:
This course presents an introduction to feedback control systems. It is aimed at setting up
the background and knowledge in control systems. Control systems have importance in all
fields of engineering. The objective is to provide the student with the basic concepts of
control theory as developed over the years in both frequency and time domain.
Course Learning Outcomes:
At the end of this course, the students should be able to:
CLO:1. Analyze the behavior of a physical system to determine the stability, fastness,
slowness or oscillations(Level: C4)
CLO:2. Design controllers for real life engineering systems for performance
enhancement and stability. (Level: C5)
