This paper describes a tool for interactive learning that can be used to improve control
systems design. The developed system is ready to use and allows testing different control …

This paper describes a virtual laboratory which illustrates a real-world application of
fundamental control principles: the Reaction Wheel Pendulum. The goal of the paper is to …

Control engineering courses conducted in the classroom need to be integrated with design
and implementation of controllers. This paper describes the implementation of an online …

Commercial modules for learning advanced control systems are not quite common and
some are very expensive due to their sensors, electronic and license. There is an open area …

This paper introduces interactive animations as a support resource for learning concepts of
control systems. The animations are focused on three dynamic systems: a tank, a spring …

The aim of this paper is to introduce the design steps and implementation details of a
system, which combines modern web-technologies and open-source simulation software to …

The inverted pendulum is a classical problem in control theory and widely used as
benchmark for testing control algorithms (PID controllers, neural networks, Genetic …

The use of the inverted pendulum experiment in teaching control theory and practice is now
widely expected in the domain of higher technical education. In this paper an environment …

This paper deals with the use of interactive computer simulation and animation
environments in a virtual lab which illustrates real-world applications of fundamental control …

This paper presents a new tool which teaches sliding mode control (SMC) and proportional-
integral-derivative (PID) control to undergraduate and graduate students without laboratory …
