Course Description
This course focuses on design techniques for controllers and compensators. Continuous compensators are studied in detail and used as a basis for the design of discrete equivalents using the method of emulation. The course also introduces direct design techniques for the design of digital compensators and stability analysis for both continuous and discrete systems. Topics include real time computer implementation of discrete controllers, PID controllers, and associated tuning techniques. Design assignments are completed and simulated using Matlab and Simulink.

Course Description
This course provides knowledge of methods for the manufacturing of prototypes from computer-based models. It increases students' understanding of the entire process of direct manufacturing from the creation of computer-based models to their physical realization. The instruction consists of lectures, demonstrations, exercises, and study visits. The theoretical portion of the course covers freeform production and its potential use, and the practical portion provides students with training in the skills involved in freeform production and consists of supervised exercises of gradually increasing complexity.

Course Description
This course develops students' awareness of the qualitative behavior of fluids in typical situations so that models of problems can be set up for solution. Students learn to produce quantitative solutions for models derived from some useful applications in the fields of measurement and pipe flow; establish enough theoretical background to understand the range of validity of these basic solutions; and gain a basic understanding of terminology and theory for more advanced study in subsequent years.

Course Description
The course introduces the main aspects of industrial design used by designers in their everyday work together with aspects of contemporary design research. Lectures on design management and the design process and environmental concerns are included as well as introduction to modelling techniques. The product is examined from a user centered and sociological perspective. The course also contains an industrially related project in which the insights obtained during the course are practiced. In this project the students work in groups of 3-4 students. Guidance is provided and the workshop is open for the students. The students plan when and how they work during the project. Industrial designers active in industry teach and give feedback on the project work. A field trip to a design bureau is also included.

Course Description
This course focuses on the principles governing the state of motion or rest of bodies under the influence of applied force and torque, according to classical mechanics. The course covers the fundamental principles of the kinematics and kinetics of systems of particles, rigid bodies, planar mechanisms, three-dimensional mechanisms, covering topics including kinematics in various coordinate systems, Newton's laws of motion, work and energy principles, impulse and momentum (linear and angular), gyroscopic motion and vibration. Students develop skills in analyzing and modeling dynamical systems, using both analytical methods and computer-based solutions using MATLAB. Students gain experience in approximating the dynamic behavior of real systems in engineering applications and an appreciation and understanding of the effect of approximations in the development and design of systems in real-world engineering tasks.
