The aim of the project seminar is to apply the theoretical principles learned in the lectures “System Dynamics and Control Systems I” and others to practical scenarios. This includes the creation of a system specification, the selection of suitable control methods and concepts and the implementation of these. In addition, the professional skills with aspects such as teamwork and presentation techniques, as well as the systematic research of information are developed and sharpened.

The assignments are worked on together in small groups of 2-4 students. The projects can include the following topics:

• Model predictive control and machine learning
• Modeling, analysis and design of multivariable control systems
• Design of robust control systems
• System analysis, monitoring and fault diagnosis
• Modeling and identification

Exemplary applications can be found in the field of renewable energies, production engineering, the automotive industry and other exciting topics.

At the end of the project seminar, the group gives a 20 minute presentation. In addition, a written report has to be prepared.

Depending on the topic, the language of communication is either German or English.
