About the course


Mathematical Modeling or also called Model-Based Design (MBD) is the mandatory need for industries in sectors such as Aerospace, Space research, Automotive, Energy production, Embedded systems, Motor & Controllers, and Control Systems Engineering, or for any sector involved in engineering & development. Because, you can model any system in the universe, and study its behavior in static & dynamic conditions if you have the equations to solve. 

The 4-week program will involve you to build real-world applications using the numerical modeling software called Scilab & Scilab-Xcos. It will be 100% practical & hands-on oriented content, taught online to meet the industry requirements. Learning this course will allow you to extend yourself to build systems and take up the projects of your interest.

Every participant will require a laptop and the Scilab software (given by Decibels after registration) to take part in the course. Every student will have to build the models along with the trainer and be involved in everyday reporting. 

During week 1 & week 2, learners will learn the Scilab & Scilab-Xcos software tools by solving the simpler problems, taking up assignments, and building the models. By the end of week 2, you will have a solid understanding & grip on the software tool. By then you will be ready to start your major projects upcoming in week 3 & week 4.

During week 3 & week 4, learners will be individually assigned with projects, depending on your department of studies & industry applications. Learners will have to individually build the projects and perform the result analysis with the document reporting. Assigned Projects are very important to learn the application of tools and also an opportunity to understand how to build and analyze a system. 

Upon completing the 4 weeks course, Decibels will provide you the list of projects you can build to gain the application of Mathematical Modeling/Model-Based Design. Projects are given the highest preference because industries always look for engineers with project experience. By involving more projects, you can gain the experience that the industry demands, and so forth you get hired.

“A well structured program within the set time frame, helped me gain enough understanding to know about and use Scilab Xcos software, and work on projects which were amply challenging to help me understand about the model, go back and correct my mistakes and understand the analysis of the output. What I learnt through this internship serves as the perfect foundation and the skills I've gained will help me work on future projects with confidence. Apart from the technical part itself, you take us through the industry persepctive and what could we be doing to improve ourselves (work on more projects etc), delve more into what we've learnt, what to showcase in CVs which wholly rounded out my experience ”

“The course was wonderfully organized, with keen attention to detail. The topics covered were of sufficient depth for the duration of the course, and the 8th session covering hand calculation was excellent exposure for the attendees. One con however is that the videos seem to be very lengthy, and since this was posted as a self paced course, giving shorter videos of 1/2 hour durations would have been much better for attendee satisfaction.”

“At the end of 4 weeks, I had gained an ample amount of knowledge in designing the dynamic control system for a Drone which includes Pitch and Stability controls. Apart from these flight controls, the course covered in-depth knowledge on Transfer Functions, solving real-time problems on Race Car Resistive Forces, Plotting 3D graphs, data visualization, etc. The mentors are well experienced in the field of Electronics and control systems and the way they handled the course deserves appreciation.”
