DESCRIPTION
Many phenomena are characterized by dynamic behaviour where we are interested in a certain input/output behaviour. Examples are to be found in the exact and natural sciences (mechanics, biology, ecology), in engineering (air- and spacecraft design, mechanical engineering) as well as in economics and econometrics (macro- economical models, trend and seasonal influences in demand and supply, production systems). Systems theory is concerned with modeling, estimation and control of dynamical phenomena. During the course the following subjects will be treated: models and representations (linear systems, input-output, state space, transfer function, stochastic systems, spectrum), control (stabilisation, feedback, pole placement, dynamic programming, the LQ problem), and identification and prediction (parameter estimation, spectral analysis, Kalman- filter, model reduction). Applications are in the area of optimal control and prediction.
Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU Amsterdam) awards credits based on the ECTS system. Contact hours listed under a course description may vary due to the combination of lecture-based and independent work required for each course therefore, CEA?s recommended credits are based on the ECTS credits assigned by VU Amsterdam. 1 ECTS equals 28 contact hours assigned by VU Amsterdam.
