ME451: Control Systems Course Roadmap

This document provides a 3-sentence summary of each section of a course on control systems: [1] It introduces the course topics of modeling, analysis, and design of control systems using Laplace transforms, transfer functions, block diagrams, and stability analysis. [2] The sections cover modeling electrical, mechanical, and electromechanical systems using block diagrams and linearization; time and frequency response analysis; and design using root locus and PID/lead-lag controllers. [3] Block diagrams are used to represent elementary connections in series, parallel, summing junctions and feedback loops, and formulas are presented for computing transfer functions in feedback loop configurations.
