Laboratory of automatic control

Course objectives

General Objectives: The student must be able to use the basic methodologies of the Control Engineering in particular applications, working on a specific project. Specific Objectives: They are fosused on the improvement of personal skills in reviewing and adapting all the knowledge on analisys and sinthesys in Control Engineering acquired in the previous courses working on a real practical problem, stimulating the individual and autonomous working abilities. Knowledge and understanding: Improvements on the knowledge of Control Engineering methodologies specifically devoted to the development of the project, and additional knowledge in the field of the project. Applying knowledge and understanding: The student has to be able to handle a project on a specific Control Engineering problem working autonomously. Making judgements: The student has to be able to evaluate the different methodologies and approaches for a specific application and to be ableto choose the most effectivesolution, with a suitable motivation. Communication skills: The student must be able to explain the choices adopted in the dedelopment of the project and the results attained, in an intelligible language. Learning skills: They are stimulated by the necessity of improving the knowledge on a specific problem in a particular application and on the specific methodologies to be adopted.
