Control
Control Engineering is a major which controls various system behaviors such as mechanical system, electrical system, chemical processes, biology, economics and industrial processes. Facilities, capabilities, potentials and characteristics of control Engineering are as follows:
-Industrial Control Laboratory
- Robotics Laboratory
- Instrumentation Laboratory
- PLC Laboratory
The current research areas are as follows:
- Automatic Flight Control System (AFCS)
- Command and Stability Augmentation Systems (CSAS)
- Turbojets Control
- Car Smart Control Systems
- Multifactor Systems
This program aims to improve systems, production quality and automate different kinds of operations. The graduated students can be active on medical engineering, mechanics, mechatronics, industrial processes, aero spaces, automotive industry, chemical processes, robotics, etc. Two major subcategories of this field are “Control Theory” and “Instrumentation and Automation”. The main areas of this major are linear and nonlinear control system, modern control system, digital control systems, industrial control and automation, instrumentation, modelling, identification and the other majors such as adaptive control, fuzzy control, model predictor control, robust control, fault tolerant control system, intelligent systems, distributed control, multi-agent systems, digital signal processing, etc.
Control engineering focuses on the modeling of a diverse range of dynamic systems and the design of controllers that will cause these systems to behave in the desired manner. To implement such controllers electrical engineers may use electronic circuits, digital signal processors, microcontrollers and programmable logic controls (PLCs). Control engineering has a wide range of applications from the flight and propulsion systems of commercial airliners to the cruise control present in many modern automobiles. It also plays an important role in industrial automation.
Control engineers often utilize feedback when designing control systems. For example, in an automobile with cruise control the vehicle\'s speed is continuously monitored and fed back to the system which adjusts the motor\'s power output accordingly. there is regular feedback, control theory can be used to determine how the system responds to such feedback.
