Students with Disabilities: Accommodations are collaborative efforts between students, faculty and Services for Students with Disabilities (SSD). Students with accommodations approved through SSD are responsible for contacting the faculty member in charge of the course prior to or during the first week of the term to discuss accommodations. Students who believe they are eligible for accommodations but who have not yet obtained approval through SSD should contact SSD immediately at 737-4098.

Academic Dishonesty: You are permitted, and to a great extent encouraged, to work with others on homework sets. However, there is an obvious difference between constructive discussion of a particular problem and copying. Acts of academic dishonesty will not be tolerated and will be handled according to university policy. (See http://oregonstate.edu/admin/stucon/achon.htm for details.)

Learning Objectives: By the end of the course students will be able to:

• Construct a mathematical model of a dynamic system that includes a control system
• Simplify mathematical models to linear, time-invariant systems through linearization and/or block diagram reduction
• Use time domain performance criteria to design single-input, single-output control systems that achieve specified time response, accuracy and stability requirements
• Construct and use frequency response tools to design single-input, single-output control systems that achieve specified time response and stability requirements
• Use Matlab to design, simulate, and analyze the response of controlled dynamic systems
