I have been going through Ogata’s book. He has mentioned the above 3 methods to design control systems. My application is motor control (servo position control to be specific). Which method is best applicable for this and why? And in a more general way, in which situation(s) one design method is more suitable over the other?
Hey ya'll. I hope this is the right place to ask this question, but I'm signing up for classes here shortly, and I'm pretty split between choosing to take Software Development Methods and Tools or Design and Analysis of Data Systems. My main goal is to hopefully take part in an internship this upcoming summer, and was conflicted on which one would be more beneficial than the other for that (or in general!).
I'm currently taking a graduate class in approximate methods of structural analysis and one of the projects is to read a text/book related to the class.
The three books the professor has recommended in the syllabus are: The Design of Building Structures - Schueller Structures (7 Ed.) - Schodek and Bechthold Form and Forces: Designing Efficient, Expressive - Allen and Zalewski
I can read one of these but am encouraged to find additional literature.
I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions of good books you've read on this topic.
Bonus points: my research is related to fire modeling of structures, specifically at steel beam column connections, so anything with a fire safety engineering topic would be extra useful to me.
Does anyone have a PDF of this book? ISBN is: 978-1-119-49632-8
I'm taking a graduate course in hybrid system/cyberphysical system, and just wondering if it's just an analysis tool or it's more useful than that?
EDIT: I've worked on several robotic systems, finite state machine based for the discrete part, and PID on the continuous parts. So I'm just thinking if this research area offers something new in the application side.
If I have to choose between Design and Analysis of Algorithms and Distributed Systems and Algorithms, which one is better in terms of workload and difficulty level?
Hi there, I am looking for some suggestions on the courses I will be taking next semester. Any help will be appreciated!
Background: I am a master student and completed a bachelor degree in applied math and wanted to change my career path to be a software development engineer.
I am planning to take 6.004 + 6.036 + 6.046 with two other light data science classes next semester. (I am gonna pass and fail these two classes so as long as I pass I don't care about them anyway)
I am a little bit worried about the overall workload because next semester is gonna be my first semester at MIT, and I have NO prior experience to anything related to computer system at all. Presumably I will have taken three python classes and one data structure class using Java before the start of the next semester (including self-studying in this winter break).
Could anyone give me some advice about if the above schedule is doable? If not which two of these three should I choose? (I can accept both career paths as a data scientist or sde, but preferably sde)
Thanks in advance!
Hey Guys I'm looking for the test bank for this test bank. If somebody does have it, i would be grateful to get it from them. Thanks
A r/preppers discussion with a water treatment PhD got this engineer thinking… yes, that’s dangerous, as my wife likes to remind me.
Let’s assume there’s a need for long-duration, simple, robust, neighborhood-scale water treatment, say for the space between quality backpacking and municipal -scale water treatment systems.
Let’s assume suburban or urban water goes and potable water comes out.
What’s in the middle? Ideally a DIY, low-cost, long-term, minimal-consumables, system made from available stuff.
Yes, there’s hundreds of factors to consider but … baby steps.
My best guess uses three, used for food, 50g, blue drums.
1st elevated drum - Clay + Flocculant, e.g. https://www.alarcorp.com/clay-flocculant/, which after settling trickle feeds from 25% full level into…
2nd drum - open-top, biosand filter, which trickles into …
3rd drum - purifier stage with UV (if you have solar power), chlorine (if pool shock available), or a backpacking-type filter
Anyone have better idea(s)?
