Description
The concept of differential flatness offers an approach to model based control of linear and nonlinear systems, including trajectory planning and the design of feedforward and feedback controls. It has been successfully applied in various applications such as the control of electric or pneumatic drives, cranes, inverted pendulums or process control systems.
The lecture “Flat Systems” introduces the concept of differential flatness for linear time invariant, linear time variant and nonlinear SISO and MIMO systems. It provides methods and tools for the design of two-degree-of-freedom control systems for asymptotic tracking, consisting of a feedforward control and a stabilizing feedback control. The theoretical concepts are illustrated by selected real-world examples.
The lectures “Einführung in die Regelungstechnik“ and „Konzepte der Regelungstechnik“ or equivalent knowledge of system dynamics and control theory are required as a prerequisite.
