Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to practice the knowledge acquired in the continuous- and discrete-time control subjects in the laboratory. Students gradually design and apply different types of control systems to laboratory processes - level, speed, temperature, position, pressure and flow control, for two-dimensional hydraulic-pneumatic system and for multi-dimensional system TecQuipment with flow, level, temperature and pressure control.
After completing the course the student understands advanced methods of continuous- and discrete-time control, has practical experience with application of methods in the laboratory conditions, can apply methods in Simulink environment, but also as a MATLAB script.
Prerequisites
Knowledge from subjects continuous- and discrete-time control.

Assessment methods and criteria
Oral examination, Home assignment evaluation, Discussion

Student must obtain credit and pass an oral exam.
