Theoretical Part

Lecture Time:

Wednesday: 19:00-22:00

Course Objectives:

After the student has approved this course, the following specic goals are expected to be acquired:

• The student must be able to model linear dynamic systems using Laplace Transform.
• The student must be able to solve electrical circuits using time/complex frequency representations.
• The student must be able to use engineering tools to design control systems. 
• The student must be able to design, implement and tunning controllers for electrical systems. 

Prerequisites:

Prerequisites of this course are defined by the Electrical Department USACH.

Nevertheless, it is important the student has an undergraduate-level understanding of the following topics:

Laplace Transform, Kirchhoff Laws and maths at first undergraduate level. 

Office Hours:

By appointment.
