kf Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Anyone know any decent tutorials on control theory. I must model a windturbine. but just need something to help me go through the process of modelling it and then using the laplace transfrom so i can draw the block diagram. ANY tutorial. it doesnt have to be a windturbine. any device that was modelled. I've kind of learned it before and am trawling through old notes but i'd love to find something that just ran through the details of it to save time.

darkenlighten Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 (edited) what type of software are you using? If you are not using software, this still might be good: http://host.nigde.edu.tr/sayasun/documents/dc-motor-published.pdf But depending what this is for, what you are trying to do doesn't seem broad, but you make it sound like it is. Unless you are just trying to model a system that experience some type of input then goes through a damping, and has a feedback and output? Thats the most general I can think of, is feedback control. Which for feedback control, this looks good: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CBwQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fciteseerx.ist.psu.edu%2Fviewdoc%2Fdownload%3Fdoi%3D10.1.1.129.1850%26rep%3Drep1%26type%3Dpdf&rct=j&q=feedback%20control%20theory&ei=Hdq8TJeCF8-aOr2u8c8M&usg=AFQjCNGttvlPjx1pUNhkHIHAVDGeZGSwvA&sig2=jbgjae6IxnDFoRWXjlsukQ&cad=rja, it opens straight to a PDF, but is legit.

ed84c Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 These lecture notes are pretty good ,and the intro is a bit more gentle: http://www-control.eng.cam.ac.uk/gv/p6/ Lecture 2 is probably the most important to get your head around. Post again if any probs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
