Purpose and Content

The aim of the course Many engineering problems can be analyzed and solved within the framework of system concept, which is a very fundamental notion in engineering. It is possible to classify systems into two main groups as liner and nonlinear although they may have many different properties and characteristics. Systems can be assumed as linear under certain conditions despite the fact that most of the systems are nonlinear. In this way, linear systems point of view can also be used in the analysis of nonlinear systems. In this course, the aim is to provide the necessary background for the students to be able to understand and solve the engineering problems by using the theory and methods developed for linear systems.
Course Content Linear spaces. Change of basis. Linear operators. Range space and null space. Eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Jordan form representation. Function of a square matrix. Norms. Linear system description: input-output and state variable descriptions, time invariant and time varying systems. Modal decomposition. Equivalent (or similar) systems and equivalence (or similarity) transformation. Linear system analysis: controllability, observability and stability.
