Spring 2014 AME 443: Control Systems Laboratory Laboratory #2: Experiments (Finally!)

This document outlines experiments for a control systems laboratory. The experiments aim to identify system parameters using free response and step response tests. Students will record responses of an initial system and with added mass to compute damping, natural frequency, spring stiffness, and mass or moment of inertia. Experiments 1 and 2 will then be repeated with different spring and damping coefficients.

Compute the damping coecient and natural frequency n (b) Add a known mass to the system and repeat (a) (c) Using the results of (a) and (b) compute i. Spring stiness k (or kt ) ii. Damping c (or ct ) iii. Mass m of the cart (or moment of inertia I of the disk) 2. Identication of system parameters using step response (a) Record the response of the system to a step of known magnitude A i. Compute the damping coecient and natural frequency n (b) Add a known mass to the system and repeat (a) (c) Using the results of (a) and (b) compute i. ii. iii. iv. Spring stiness k (or kt ) Damping c (or ct ) Mass m of the cart (or moment of inertia I of the disk) Machine constant Khw
