Course Information

Course in 2011 Winter term. 

ENCS8011 -Ph.D Seminar

This course aims at  developing Ph.D student's' scientific communication skill and  assessing students' research progress after proposal.

MECH371 - Analysis and Design of Control Systems

This course deals with the fundamental principles of control systems. The course aims to develop the basic understanding of control system theory and its role in engineering design. The student is exposed to many practical problems and their solutions. The laboratory work presents the opportunity to experiment with actual control systems hardware.


ENGR311 - Transform Calculus and Partial Differential Equations

The Laplace transform: Laplace transforms and their properties, solution of linear differential equations with constant coefficients. Further theorems and their applications. The Fourier transform: orthogonal functions, expansion of a function in orthogonal functions, the Fourier series, the Fourier integral, the Fourier transform, the convolution theorem. Partial differential equations: physical foundations of partial differential equations, introduction to boundary value problems.

MECH473/6021 - Control System Design

MECH370 - Modelling, Simulation and Analysis of Physical Systems  

ENGR391 - Numerical Methods in Engineering

Engineers depend on mathematical equations to describe behavior of many systems. In practice these equations cannot be solved analytically, therefore, numerical methods are often used.  This course introduces engineering students to these numerical methods and algorithms. It is an introductory course, and can be complemented by a variety of other courses geared at different approaches to numerical simulation of the many phenomena occurring in different engineering disciplines, e.g. Fluid Mechanics, Solid Mechanics, Electromagnetics, etc.

 

MECH470 - Industrial Electronics

This course exposes students to the essentials of electronic technology and the rudiments of design so that they, as mechanical engineers, can understand the operation of basic electronic circuits in the field of control and instrumentation. The course covers basic circuits, including linear and nonlinear circuit analysis, basic semiconductor electronic devices, and electronic systems, including digital and analog systems, and analog-digital interface circuits.

 

MECH471 - Microprocessor and its applications

This is an introductory course on the topic of microprocessors and their application towards the control of electromechanical systems. The internal structure and timing of the microprocessor and its supporting peripheral chips will be studied in detail. The course provides hands-on experience in the form of project work. The student will be required to perform hardware interfacing and program control algorithms in C-language. Subroutines can be written in C-language or 80x86 assembly language for input/output and for the programming of the support chips.

MECH475 - Dynamics of mechanical and process processes

Dynamics of mechanical and chemical processes, dynamics modeling and system identification, process control concepts, control system design strategies and process safety, conventional analogue (or continuous-time) and digital computer (or discrete-time) control techniques, implement computer controller in the laboratory project. Software platform for assignments and project: MATLAB+SIMULINK. Topics to be covered will include all or some of the following.
