I - INTRODUCTION – II DEFINITIONS – III - LINEAR SYSTEMS – IV LAPLACE TRANSFORMS – V TRANSFER FUNCTION – VI MAIN DISTURBANCES FUNCTIONS AND 1ST-ORDER RESPONSE – V 2SD-ORDER SYSTEMS .

The students will gain knowledge in dynamics of systems through lectures, exercise and tutorials. Competencies that should be acquired at the end of this course are: - Knowledge about the transfer function and its uses - Study of 1st- and 2sd-order systems stability - Determine the order of an unknown system - Write opened-loop block diagrams
