​

This Course Goal:  refer to (EENG 485/ EENG 487 COURSE SHEET) Document:  UOB QAAC - EENG 487, Course Syllabus Form EENG487  QAAC  Form 

 

To provide the necessary background in nonlinear system analysis and nonlinear control system design for those strongly interested in control system design.

Prerequisites: A standard undergraduate-level background in control system design.  The Course will be fully supported by a large number of laboratory experiments and practical works.  

Hence,  a student will learn the basics of  Matlab and use it as a support for analysis and design of lab oriented experiments.

Object Oriented Programming using Matlab (OOP):

uses of classes (class), objects (obj) and data structure (struct) .. if you would like to use this approach in programming for this course, this will be great.  This is optional, but it is always good to learn latest advanced programming tools.  Download slides about Matlab (oop), from the Advanced MATLAB for Scientific Computing, Stanford University.  (press here to download)  OOP-Matlab
