Nonlinear Systems Course
Gain expertise in nonlinear systems through comprehensive training on modelling effects like friction and saturation, linearising models, designing resilient controllers, evaluating stability, and optimising high-precision positioning for engineering and maths in real scenarios. This hands-on course equips you with vital tools for advanced control challenges.

What will I learn?
Dive into modelling and controlling vertical positioning stages accounting for friction, backlash, dead zones, and saturation. Develop simplified nonlinear models, find equilibria and linearisations, create robust controllers, assess stability and limit cycles, and validate via simulations with precision benchmarks for practical use.
