SCIT Catalog <br />ELE330 DESIGN OF CONTROL SYSTEMS <br />2 UNITS <br />PREREQUISITE ELE230 <br />This course is about methods to analyze <br />dynamic systems and to design <br />appropriate controls to obtain a desired <br />dynamic performance. Examples of <br />systems discussed in the course are <br />mechanical, electrical and magnetic <br />systems. Topics of the course include: <br />Transient response analysis, stability <br />and damping. Frequency domain <br />techniques for analysis and design of <br />dynamic systems: root locus and <br />frequency response analysis. PID <br />controls. Also covered are time domain <br />techniques such as the state space <br />representation of dynamic system and <br />its use for analysis and design of control <br />systems. Formerly IE330. <br />ELE330L DESIGN OF CONTROL SYSTEMS <br />LAB <br />2 UNITS <br />PREREQUISITE: C220 <br />COREQUISITE: ELE330 <br />The student is introduced to the <br />fundamentals of automatic control <br />systems including the analysis and <br />design of control systems for various <br />engineering applications. Topics Include <br />modelingof physical systems using both <br />transfer function and state space <br />models. System responses, performance <br />and design criteria. Control system <br />characteristics, stability, sensitivity, <br />steady state errors and transient <br />response. Stability analyses using Routh - <br />Hurwitz, Root -locus, Nyqulst, and Bode <br />methods. Lead and lagcompensators <br />and PID controllers design using root - <br />locus method. Frequency -response <br />analysis. MATLAB and SIMULINK are <br />used to aid In the analysis and design of <br />control systems. Formerly IE332 <br />ELE350 EMBEDDED SYSTEMS <br />2 UNITS <br />PREREQUISITE: C201B <br />This course covers computer number <br />systems, codes, and arithmetic <br />functions; microprocessor and <br />microcontroller functions, architecture, <br />Instruction sets, addressing modes, <br />Internal operations, PIA interfacing, and <br />1/O operations.

Formerly RE300 when taken <br />with ELE350. <br />ELE352 ROBOTICS ENGINEERING <br />2 UNITS <br />PREREQUISITE: ELE350 <br />This course covers basics of Robotics <br />Engineering, including Cartesian <br />coordinates, robotics, control <br />components, speed controllers, servos, <br />synchros, stepper motors, and motor <br />drive control circuits. This course <br />additionally covers the control of <br />robotic arms and manipulators through <br />the use of interface cards. Formerly <br />RE305. <br />ELE352L ROBOTICS ENGINEERING LAB <br />2 UNITS <br />COREQUISITE: ELE352 <br />This course allows students to apply <br />concepts learned in ELE352 in a lab <br />environment in order to program the <br />control of robotic motions and interface <br />with robotic systems. Formerly RE306. <br />ELE420 ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS <br />4 UNITS <br />PREQUISITE: PH310, MT330 <br />This course introduces students to <br />electrostatics, Faraday's laws, Maxwell's <br />equations, electromagnetic wave <br />propagation and refraction, Smith Chart, <br />and the transmission of electromagnetic <br />energy through transmission lines. <br />ELE470 POWER SYSTEM ANALYSIS <br />4 UNITS <br />PREREQUISITE: ELE420 <br />This course covers the basic <br />components of power system and <br />discusses the process of converting non- <br />electrical energy to electricity for <br />electric utilities. Transmission line <br />parameter computation and analysis. <br />Models for transformers, generators, <br />and loads Power flow analysis and <br />control. Formerly EL480. <br />ELE472 ELECTRIC POWER DISTRIBUTION <br />SYSTEMS <br />4 UNITS <br />PREREQUISITE: ELE470 <br />Electric power distribution system <br />planning, design and operations; load <br />characteristics and distribution <br />transformers, design of sub - <br />transmission lines and distribution <br />substations, primary and secondary <br />feeder design considerations, <br />distribution system voltage regulation, <br />protection and reliability; distributed <br />generation and smart grid application. <br />Formerly EL485. <br />ELE474 POWER SYSTEM PROTECTION <br />4 UNITS <br />PREREQUISITE: ELE472 <br />Power system protection is an integral <br />part of every power system. All power <br />equipment Including power generators, <br />step-up transformers, step-down <br />transformers, transmission lines, power <br />capacitors and electric motors and other <br />loads etc. need protection. The <br />necessity for protection is incurred by <br />all kinds of contingencies such as <br />equipment failure due to insulation <br />deterioration, lightning strike, short- <br />circuit by nature force or creature -made <br />happenings, Inappropriate operation of <br />power system and other inadvertent <br />incidences. Some power equipment is <br />very expensive such as MW generators <br />which could cost millions of dollars. <br />Furthermore outage due to failure of <br />power system causes severe damage to <br />economy and Inconvenience to people's <br />dally life. A properly designed <br />protection can ensure power supply cut <br />to minimum users yet continue supply <br />power to other end users in case that a <br />fault occurs in the system. It Is a <br />sophisticated art which needs a <br />systematic study in order to master. All <br />these call for a new course for <br />undergraduate students to learn in the <br />field of power system protection. <br />Page 60 of 69 <br />
