Automatic Control

Automatic control is the research area and theoretical base for mechanization and automation, employing methods from both mathematics and engineering. A central concept is that of the system which is to be controlled, such as a rudder, propeller or an entire aircraft. The systems studied within the lecture “Systemtheorie und Regelungstechnik” (SRT) are mostly linear systems.

SRT is a mandatory course for Bachelor students of Mechanical- and Process Engineering with 6 Credit Points. Lectures and exercises are held in winter semester.

The course consists of a weekly 3h lecture, 1h classroom exercise and 2h group exercise. Exams are held both in summer and winter semester.

The lectures are held by Prof. Dr.-Ing. U. Klingauf, assisting research associates is Lukas Biesalski M.Sc.
