Modeling and identification of dynamic systems : exercises

This book contains examples and exercises with modeling problems together with complete solutions. The contents is tailored to the book Ljung-Glad: Modeling and Identification of Dynamic Systems (Studentlitteratur, 2016).

The exercises are of different levels of difficulty and cover general modeling principles (such as bond graphs) as well as practical tools like Modelica and Simscape. System identification, model and signal properties are also covered together with basic techniques for simulation. Most of the problems deal with issues from industrial applications, but also economic, social and medical cases are covered.

The text requires certain knowledge in linear algebra, signal and systems and basic familiarity with physics and statistics. The computer exercises assume access to basic software such as Matlab and Simulink, and to some extent Modelica/Dymola/Simscape. The book is suitable for Master level courses in engineering, but also for practicing engineers. It is based on the Swedish text Modellbygge och simulering: Övningsbok, Studentlitteratur 2008, by the same authors.
