Modelling of physical systems and representations of signals and systems are mandatory concepts for the interpretation and insight into mechatonics system engineering. Additionally, a working knowledge of modern simulation software is an indispensable tool for the examination and design of such systems. The course combines these areas and emphasizes the system concept in mechatronics.

1. Modelling
1.1 Introductory examples from mechatronic systems engineering
1.2 Principles of physical and data-based modelling
1.3 Model validation
1.4 Structure of mechatronic systems

2. Signals and systems
2.1 The system concept
2.2 Classification of  systems and signals
2.3 Linearization

3. Simulation 
3.1 Numerical models and numerical integration 
3.2 Modern simulation software
3.3 Simulation-based design of mechatronic systems:  computer-based hands-on exercises

The total workload for the module is 150 hours (see also "ECTS credit points and grading").
