 |
| Beginning
with a review of classical control, the course will progress
towards the advanced control topics such as adaptive control
and intelligent control. It will introduce advanced control
concepts with emphasis on current industrial applications.
Focus of the course will be on addressing the benefits of
advanced control techniques. This course is expected to
provide a good understanding of the fundamentals of control
system technology which will enable the participants to
develop controllers for many real-world problems. The participant
will have the opportunity of gaining exposure with control
system toolboxes. In the course, MATLAB Control System Toolbox
and SIMULINK will be used to demonstrate the topics. Lectures
will be delivered by faculty members of the NIT, Rourkela
and experts from IIT Kharagpur/Jadavpur Univ.. |

| DEPT. OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING |
 |
| Department of Electrical Engineering,
NIT Rourkela was established in 1961. Since its inception,
the Department is under dynamic progress and is reputed for
imparting quality education both at B.Tech, M.Tech levels.
The Department currently runs two M.Tech programme with the
specializations in (i) Power Control and Drives, (ii) Electronic
Systems and Communication. It also plans to add two more new
specializations to the existing Masters programme namely,
Robotics & Mechatronics and System & Control Engg.
Besides the undergraduate and postgraduate teaching, a good
number of research scholars are working on different areas
of electrical engineering towards the award of PhD degrees.
The Department has well equipped modern laboratories such
as Signal Processing & Communication, Image Processing
& Computer Vision, Power Electronics & Drives, Control
& Robotics, Embedded Systems & Real-Time and Soft
Computing Labs for pursuing research keeping in view of the
technological advancements. |

| The course will be handled
by Dr. Bidyadhar Subudhi, Assistant Professor, Dept. of Electrical
Engineering. Dr.Subudhi has been awarded a PhD degree in Control
System Engineering from the University of Sheffield, U.K.
in 2002 and M.Tech in Control and Instrumentation from IIT
Delhi. He graduated in Electrical Engineering from REC Rourkela.
Most recently Dr. Subudhi worked as a Post Doctoral Research
Fellow in NUS, Singapore. His areas of research and teaching
involvements include Adaptive Control, System Identification,
Intelligent Control, Robotics and Networked Control System. |
