ABOUT THE COURSE: The Objective of this course is to apply knowledge of mathematics and engineering to analyze and design a control system to meet desired specifications. Students will learn to analytically determine a control system’s functionality and select appropriate tests to demonstrate system’s performance and finally design a control system to meet a set of requirements. Develop an understanding of the elements of classical and modern control theory as applied to the control of aircraft.INTENDED AUDIENCE: UG and PGPREREQUISITES: Mathematics for Engineers, Flight Dynamics, Aircraft Performance.INDUSTRY SUPPORT: HAL, NAL, ISRO, DRDO and Private Industries.
