Summary
In the course students will be introduced to systems control and methods and ways of their control. The subject of the course is the methods of design, implementation and operation of large ones automated process control systems in industry with a focus on heavy industry. These systems are analyzed as many-parametric and many-aspect tasks. As next it instructs about classification of tasks, structures and functions of control and methods of synthesis of control algorithms. Results are applied on control systems of particular parts of metallurgical plant working in closed circuit. As next it instructs about metallurgical energetics and systems with industrial robots control problems, and new possibilities of engineering activities in this filed are outlined.
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
The student will be able to analyze the problems of control systems, to design automated control systems, to create simulation and synthesis of control circuits, to design optimal and adaptive control in industrial systems. They will have knowledge of methods of creating management algorithms and automated systems of technological process control.
The student will be able to define and create tasks in applications focused on process automation and modeling of selected industrial processes.
