Lab 3 - Control of a Flexible Servo
General
-- Lab three is concerned with controlling the position of two masses, connected by a spring. The process is more complicated than the water tanks, and will give you an opportunity to see how state feedback can be employed for a more powerful controller than the simple PID controller. You will also work with state estimation, as well as time delays.
-- This lab is scheduled to weeks 6 and 7 of the course. Responsible is Fethi Bencherki. (fethi.bencherki@control.lth.se)
