13952 - Lab Control Engineering Modulübersicht

Module Number: 13952
Module Title:Lab Control Engineering
  Labor Regelungstechnik
Department: Faculty 3 - Mechanical Engineering, Electrical and Energy Systems
Responsible Staff Member:
  • Dr.-Ing. Rau, Uwe
Language of Teaching / Examination:English
Duration:1 semester
Frequency of Offer: Every summer semester
Credits: 6
Learning Outcome:The students deepen the basic and advanced knowledge of control engineering by applying it to real laboratory experiments and simulated processes. The students are able to reflect on the relationships between modelling, design and practical implementation and to assess the real results in a well-founded manner. With the help of preparatory tasks and experimental instructions, they can develop their own questions and propose justified adjustments to the standard methods of control engineering. The students are able to work together in a group and solve tasks together. On the other hand, independence in the development and application of subject-specific knowledge is encouraged.
Contents:Laboratory experiments with tasks from mechanical engineering, electrical engineering and process engineering: Analysis and controller design in the time and frequency domain, state models, digital control, use of the Matlab/Simulink software package.
Recommended Prerequisites:Ready-to-use knowlegde of the Module 11494 Control Engineering 1 (or similar courses). 
Mandatory Prerequisites:No successfull completion of module 35463 - Labor Regelungstechnik
Forms of Teaching and Proportion:
  • Laboratory training / 4 Hours per Week per Semester
  • Self organised studies / 120 Hours per Week per Semester
Teaching Materials and Literature:Lecture and exercise scripts, instructions of the experiments
Module Examination:Continuous Assessment (MCA)
Assessment Mode for Module Examination:There will be 5-7 experiments (the number will be announced at the beginning of the course). Each laboratory experiment includes:
  • the preparation (5-10 sheets of paper in the self-study time),
  • a written test (15 min in attendance time),
  • the execution (approx. 165 min in attendance time) and
  • the evaluation (10-15 sheets of paper in the self-study time).
Points are awarded for the individual performances. They are distributed as follows:
  • Preparatory tasks 30%,
  • Written test 10%,
  • Execution and protocol 60%.    
The module grade is calculated on the basis of the total points achieved in the semester. The module is passed (grade 4.0) if 50% of the total points have been achieved.
Evaluation of Module Examination:Performance Verification – graded
Limited Number of Participants:None
