CONTENT, ASSESSMENT AND WORKLOAD
Content
valid for whole curriculum period:
We study the mathematical principles and the basic computational tools of state-feedback and optimal control theory to manipulate the dynamic behaviour of process systems. The course aims at bringing understanding of feedback control in process systems while at the same time showing how this approach can be used in general application domains in chemical and bio-chemical engineering.
Assessment Methods and Criteria
valid for whole curriculum period:
Home assignments and/or project work, and exam.
Workload
valid for whole curriculum period:
Lectures (32h) and Exercises (16h)
Home assignments and independent study (80h)
Exam (4h)

2023-2024 Autumn IIEnrollment :
A maximum number of 65 students is admitted to the course. Priority is given to degree students taking in Chemical and Process Engineering as their major. If space, other students (exchange students and Aalto degree students) will be admitted to the course based on registration order.
A course implementation may be cancelled if the number of students enrolled to the course implementation does not meet the required minimum of five students. In the case of cancelled course implementations, the students enrolled to them must be provided with an alternative way of completing the course or be advised to take some other applicable course.
