Type: Virtual Lab.
Language: English
Author: REX web farm
Description: The purpose of this ContLab is to introduce free virtual laboratories (Java applets) presenting advanced control algorithms for automation and robotics. Using these interactive tools, you can learn a lot about PID control and autotuning, predictive control, sliding mode control, vibration damping, motion control, etc. The applets can be used for all educational, RTD and commercial purposes. ContLab is a cornerstone of REX web farm.

Description: DYNAST is a software package for efficient and easy modeling, simulation and analysis of multidisciplinary nonlinear dynamic systems. Dynamic multipole models that can be set up in DYNAST in a graphical form characterize directly the real configuration of dynamic systems. The multipole models, however, can be combined with equations and block diagrams. DYNAST not only solves nonlinear algebro-differential equations, but also automatically formulates them for the multipole models. So there is no need to form any equations, block diagrams, or bond graphs. DYNAST is also able to linearize the models and to provide their semisymbolic analysis in time- and frequency-domains. In the web site, also solved examples and a course on dynamics of control systems are accessible

Description: The IFAC Control Resources (ICR) Publications provide the wide range of control and non-control communities the opportunity to explore the world of control, a field that spans beautifully and powerfully science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). The purpose of the IRC Publications is to engage junior and senior researchers in the learning and teaching process through discovering new ideas and bringing the history of control resources together. The IRC includes downloadable materials as well as links to different kind of resources as virtual laboratories, databases, publications, etc. It also provides a good reference about the history of Control.
