[edit] Control Systems
Recognition of what a control system is, and the distinction between simple and complex control systems. Analysis and design tools for dealing with simple control systems up to second order: Differential equations, Laplace transforms, transfer functions, poles and zeros, state space models, modeling, first and second order systems, stability, steady-state errors, root locus, Bode and Nyquist plots, transient response analysis and design, PID control, lead-lag compensation, simple frequency response techniques. Stabilising feedback control for transfer function and state-space models.
[edit] Textbook
The textbook for semester 2 2009 is Control Systems Engineering (4th Edition) by Nise. In an incredibly lazy move, the tutorial questions are taken straight from the end-of-chapter problems. There are no worked solutions or even answers which is very frustrating. There are worked examples and in-chapter problems, with full solutions on the accompanying CD, which I've posted here.

I've found the textbook to be pretty good. --SamMay 10:42, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
Also, the solutions to the questions we have been set are released occasionally on Vista. Tutorial 1 and 2 solutions are up now. They are unfortunately a fair bit less than correct, but better than nothing. ElsocPerry 14:42, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
