Checked model and response plots
2. Learn feedback ControlGuru and LearnChemE Practice stability, PID tuning, setpoint tracking, and disturbance rejection Two to four weeks

No-cost local path: combine the BYU or Notre Dame course materials with python-control or the GNU Octave control package, then use the TCLab emulator before adding hardware.

Control problem workflow

  1. State the process, operating point, controlled variables, manipulated variables, disturbances, measurements, and constraints.
  2. Write the balances and assumptions. Check dimensions, signs, initial conditions, and steady state.
  3. Predict the important response features before running software.
  4. Choose a simple baseline controller before adding complexity.
  5. Test setpoint changes, disturbances, noise, model mismatch, saturation, and sensor or actuator faults.
  6. Inspect solver messages, time steps, tolerances, and sensitivity to parameters.
  7. Explain stability, safety, performance, uncertainty, and the range where the result can be trusted.

Data-Driven Engineering, GenAI, and control

Data-driven methods can estimate models, states, faults, and control policies. GenAI can help plan, explain, code, and review. Neither replaces a physical model, a baseline controller, or an independent safety check.

Data-driven control learning

Resources that connect process data with dynamics and control
Resource Best use What students should check
CACHE Data-Driven Engineering resources Sensor data, time series, hybrid models, system discovery, and engineering datasets Sampling, leakage, physical bounds, extrapolation, drift, and uncertainty
Data-Driven Science and Engineering Commercial Cambridge textbook with free videos, problem sets, code, and datasets on system identification, reduced-order models, dynamics, and control Does the learned structure match the physics and intended operating range? Reuse terms for the free supplements are not stated.
PySINDy Examples Discovering governing equations from dynamic data Noise sensitivity, derivative estimates, term selection, and validation on a new trajectory
SIPPY Examples Classical and subspace system identification Excitation, order selection, residual correlation, and held-out prediction
PC-Gym documentation and repository Reinforcement-learning benchmarks for CSTRs, extraction, crystallization, and other process control problems with NMPC comparisons MIT and identified as pre-release. Pin a tested version. Use simulation first, compare with a model-based baseline, and check constraints, disturbances, sample needs, reward design, and reproducibility.

Teach effective GenAI use

A workflow that keeps engineering reasoning visible
Stage Appropriate AI help Required student evidence
Define Ask for missing variables, assumptions, disturbances, constraints, failure modes, and clarification questions Student-written problem statement and final assumptions
Plan Compare modeling, identification, control, and testing approaches before coding Chosen plan, rejected options, and reasons
Build Draft equations, pseudocode, tests, plotting code, or documentation in small steps Version history and explanation of accepted changes
Critique Search for sign errors, hidden assumptions, instability, saturation, numerical problems, and missing tests Independent hand check, baseline comparison, and corrected result
Stress-test Suggest disturbances, parameter errors, noise, delays, constraints, and sensor or actuator failures Scenario table, plots, and control response discussion
Communicate Improve organization and identify claims that need sources Accurate citations, concise engineering recommendation, and known limits

For local and commercial assistants, coding agents, privacy choices, prompting, and tool safeguards, use the CACHE Programming GenAI guide. For LLM foundations and Agentic Engineering, use the CACHE AI and Machine Learning guide.

Safe defaults for control agents

Use the NIST Generative AI Profile to build a risk register, test plan, source record, and incident exercise.

  • Use a simulator, emulator, or read-only data copy before connecting any agent to equipment or a live process.
  • Do not send proprietary plant data, student records, credentials, unpublished work, or restricted files to an unapproved service.
  • Give tools the smallest needed permissions and limit files, commands, network access, cost, and run time.
  • Log prompts, tool calls, code changes, solver output, and model or service versions.
  • Require a person to approve changes to controllers, alarms, interlocks, grades, equipment, or safety-related documents.
  • Test generated code against normal, boundary, failure, and recovery cases.
  • Keep a known safe controller and a clear stop condition.

Assessment and engineering review

Assess the reasoning and evidence that surround the final plots. A polished response or stable-looking simulation is not enough.

Evidence of individual understanding

Assessment methods that work with or without AI tools
Method What it reveals Example
Prediction before simulation Physical understanding and sign reasoning Sketch the expected response and explain gain, delay, and time scale
Staged submission Planning, revision, and debugging Submit problem definition, baseline, model, controller, tests, and final recommendation in stages
Live modification Ownership of code and model Change a constraint, disturbance, parameter, or sensor and explain the response
Oral check Individual understanding in teamwork Explain one equation, tuning choice, plot, failure case, and design tradeoff
Error diagnosis Critical review skill Find and repair a plausible sign, units, sampling, model, or controller error
Comparison to a baseline Whether complexity adds value Compare advanced control with a simple PID or manual operating policy

Control review checklist

Questions to ask before accepting a model or controller
Review area Questions Evidence
Problem Are the controlled, manipulated, measured, and disturbance variables clear? Are constraints and performance goals stated? Control objective and variable table
Model Do equations, units, signs, initial conditions, steady states, and assumptions match the process? Derivation, dimensional checks, and limiting cases
Data Is the experiment sufficiently exciting? Are sampling, filtering, missing data, drift, and leakage handled? Experiment design, raw plots, and held-out validation
Stability Is the stated stability result valid for the model, operating range, delay, and uncertainty? Analysis plus nonlinear or scenario tests
Performance Are setpoint, disturbance, noise, interaction, and recovery results compared fairly? Common scenarios and stated metrics
Actuators and sensors Are saturation, rate limits, dead band, noise, delay, failure, and calibration considered? Stress tests and fallback behavior
Numerics Do integration steps, solver status, tolerances, initial guesses, and scaling support the claim? Solver record and refinement or sensitivity study
Safety and operation What happens on failure? Which alarms, interlocks, manual actions, and safe states remain independent? Hazard discussion and operating response
Reproducibility Can another person run the model with documented versions, data, seeds, and steps? Fresh run, source record, and clear instructions

Student AI-use record

Ask students to report the tool, product, and model, date and version, local or cloud deployment, files or context shared, important prompts or a concise interaction summary, suggestions accepted, changed, and rejected, independent calculations, tests, sources, and remaining limitations. Students remain responsible for the engineering work they submit.
