Modelling and Simulation of Dynamic Systems
This course is primarily a modelling and simulation course with special focus on dynamic systems. This said, a little work might also be done on simulating static systems in order to drive home the concept of modelling and simulation.
Course Content:
Introduction to concepts in modeling and simulation
Analog simulations:
Study of differential equations
Generation of time base reference
Amplitude and time scaling
Simulation of control systems from block diagrams
Transfer functions and state equations
Analog memory and its applications
Repetitive and iterative operation of an analogue computer
Digital simulation:
Comparison of digital and analog/hybrid simulation
Modeling & Simulation software packages
Study of a few algorithms of interest in modeling and simulation: genetic algorithms, Monte Carlo techniques etc
