The fundamental objective of this course is to develop competences on modeling, analysys and design of automatic control systems for physical/chemical/biological processes. As a complement, it is exepected that the students will gain basic knowledge on instrumentation associated to automatic control: sensors, controllers, and final control elements.
A student, after successfully concluding this course, should be able to:
The main topics in this course are:
Teaching will be based on presential classes for presentation and discussion of concepts and study cases. Software tools (Matlab and Simulink) will be used for computer-based learning. Pratical exercises will take place using real PID control systems.

The final grade, CF, is given by:
CF = 0.25 * CT + 0.75 * CE
wher CT is teh grade on the report for the work performed during the semester, and CE is the grade on the axam. The exam will have a part without consultation (50 %) and a part with concultation (50 %).
In order to pass the course, a minimum grade of 8 in the exam is mandatory.
A work on simulation of process control will be performed (the work will be disclosed on May 20 and teh report turned in on May 27).
Final exam.
Each student may choose between doing the second exam ("recurso") in order to improve only the grade of the first exam, keeping the grade for the work report, ou improve both grades, so that the final grade will be that of the second exam.
