A FIRST LABORATORY COURSE IN ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF DYNAMIC SYSTEMS

摘要

This paper describes the philosophy and content of a first course in analysis and design of dynamics systems of the Faculty of Electrical Enginnering at Unicamp. The course has been designed to address the most important concepts related to the subject with basis of an integrated use of digital and analog computers. The Matlab/Simulink software package is used on IBM-like personal computers to perform digital simulations. A low-cost analog computer was recently developed by the authors and complements the understanding of the student about analysis and design of dynamic systems with some hands-on experience.
