Literature

Lecture notes and other material will be made available online.
The course literature contains two parts, which can be purchased at STEX:

• L. Ljung and T. Glad, Modelling of Dynamic Systems, draft of 2nd Edition (in English). If you find any errors, please report them here.
• Two compendiums:
  • Exercises and Solutions,
  • Lab instructions and Computer exercises.
• For those of you that have compendiums from 2011, you can download an ERRATA here, and check the Laboratory Exercises for updated versions of the Lab instructions.
• A supplement for the second part of the course, on system identification, is T. Söderström and P. Stoica, System Identification, Prentice Hall, 1989, in particular Chaps. 1-5 (note: the course does not follow this book; it is just complementary reading). This book is available at: http://user.it.uu.se/~ts/sysidbook.pdf

Disposition

The course consist of three main parts: principles for physical modelling, simulation and system identification. The outline of the course is as follows:

• Introduction (L1)
• Physical modeling (L1-L4)
• Simulation (L5)
• System Identification (L6-L11)
• Summary (L12)
