COM-502: Dynamical system theory for engineersLinear and nonlinear dynamical systems are found in all fields of science and engineering. After a short review of linear system theory, the class will explain and develop the main tools for the quali
ME-523: Nonlinear Control SystemsLes systèmes non linéaires sont analysés en vue d'établir des lois de commande. On présente la stabilité au sens de Lyapunov, ainsi que des méthodes de commande géométrique (linéarisation exacte). Div
ME-427: Networked control systemsThis course offers an introduction to control systems using communication networks for interfacing sensors, actuators, controllers, and processes. Challenges due to network non-idealities and opportun
MATH-301: Ordinary differential equationsCe cours donne une introduction rigoureuse au principaux thèmes de la théorie des équations différentielles ordinaires (EDO). Les EDO sont fondamentales pour l'étude des systèmes dynamiques et des équ
CIVIL-331: Dimensioning of Timber structuresCe cours permet de maitriser les aspects fondamentaux et pratiques du dimensionnement des structures en bois. Il traite des poutres, des poteaux, des assemblages, des systèmes porteurs et des problème
BIO-341: Dynamical systems in biologyLife is non-linear. This course introduces dynamical systems as a technique for modelling simple biological processes. The emphasis is on the qualitative and numerical analysis of non-linear dynamical
EE-611: Linear system theoryThe course covers control theory and design for linear time-invariant systems : (i) Mathematical descriptions of systems (ii) Multivariables realizations; (iii) Stability ; (iv) Controllability and Ob
MATH-351: Advanced numerical analysis IIThe student will learn state-of-the-art algorithms for solving differential equations. The analysis and implementation of these algorithms will be discussed in some detail.
