Abstract

Engineering education has become increasingly reliant on more powerful software tools to assist in solving more complex problems. This paper presents examples of the application of Matlab and Simulink software to theoretical analysis and experiments in the course of Computer Control System. These examples include the dynamic behavior investigation of the experiment of computer control two-tank system when the value of the controller gain and the length of the sample time are changed. The great potential of Matlab and Simulink software in the engineering education is shown through these examples.
