Course material
Control
The control section of the course comprises five modules (see for instance Module 1). Each module is associated with lecture notes:
L1
Download L1, L2, L3, L4, L5.
There are also associated reading references:

ÅM is freely available as pdf through the link above. A free hardcopy of LG will be handed out to everyone during the first lecture of the concurrent course Modeling and learning from data Links to an external site.:
There is also a suggested set of exercise problems associate with each module. Some of them are found in the above-mentioned book by Åström & Murray, some in a collection of basic course exercises:

We encourage you to use computer tools such as Matlab (see this page) as a complement to pen-and-paper calculations. To facilitate focusing on problem-solving rather than remembering formulae, frequently used ones are provided in:
Hägglund. Automatic Control - Collection of formula. Download Hägglund. Automatic Control - Collection of formula.
In addition to the above, we will upload and/or link to additional/external material from the individual module pages whenever we find something that we believe can facilitate the learning process. We are very happy to hear your suggestions on additional material, should you find something interesting online.
Finally, Instructions to the laboratory exercises are provided directly through Canvas:
Engineering ethics
All materials associated with the engineering ethics part of the course is provided through the associated Canvas pages.
Mathematics and statistics
The covered material on mathematical statistics can be found in the book by Lindgren, Rootzén, and Sandsten which can be found here.
