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