Advanced Topics in Control of Electromechanical Systems (866H1)
15 credits, Level 7 (Masters)
Spring teaching
On this module, you'll look at advanced topics in control of nonlinear electromechanical systems.
You will learn about stability theory, used to analyse performance of nonlinear systems and advanced control systems design methods. You’ll also apply both theory and methods to electromechanical systems.
Topics include:
- introduction to nonlinear systems
- Lyapunov theory and advanced stability theory
- feedback linearization
- sliding mode control
- adaptive control
- neural network control
- extension to multi-input systems.
We regularly review our modules to incorporate student feedback, staff expertise, as well as the latest research and teaching methodology. We鈥檙e planning to run these modules in the academic year 2026/27. However, there may be changes to these modules in response to feedback, staff availability, student demand or updates to our curriculum.
We鈥檒l make sure to let you know of any material changes to modules at the earliest opportunity.
