Schedule
Units courses prerequisite and corequisite
Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program
Learning unit contents
- Introduction to closed-loop control
- Theory of linear and time-invariant systems (formulation of dynamic behaviour, state-space representation, characteristic parameters and responses)

- Design and size equipements of monitoring and production in a agroenvironmental context
- realize a functional diagram of a dynamical system
- compute the transient response of a linear and time-invariant system to a given input
- study the specifications of regulated systems
- Tune PID controllers
- implement a controller
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
- Basic notions in system dynamics (first- and second-order systems)
