Engineering 5821: Control Systems I Assignment 8: Due in Class On Friday, March 25 at 2:00 P.M

This document provides instructions for Control Systems I Assignment 8 due on March 25. It includes using Matlab sparingly to plot root loci and select dominant poles, with examples available online. Students should complete questions from Chapters 8 and 13 by hand but use Matlab to verify. They should also sketch a root locus for a given transfer function by hand and use Matlab to verify, providing a written design process for another question along with code printouts and plots.

Engineering 5821: Control Systems I Assignment 8

Due in class on Friday, March 25 at 2:00 p.m.


Some of the questions below require the use of Matlab. Matlab is to be used for root locus plots and for interactively selecting the position of dominant poles on an existing root locus plot. For examples of how to accomplish these tasks you are encouraged to consult the sections on Chapters 8 and 9 in Appendix B of the textbook. The code from Appendix B is available online at www.wiley.com/college/nise. Go to the Student Companion Site and select Control Systems Engineering Toolbox. Please take note of the following points: The code from Appendix B attempts to solve all parts of the problem by Matlab. In this assignment you should use Matlab sparinglyonly for nding gains on root locus plots and showing system responses (remember: Matlab will not be available for use on the nal exam). The following commands will be particularly useful: tf, rlocus, sgrid, rlocfind, feedback, step You should not utilize the SISOTOOL utility for this assignment. Complete the following questions: Ch. 8: Question 13 (System 1 only). Complete parts (a) - (c) by hand but use Matlab to verify your answers using the tf and rlocus commands. Determine the answer for part (d) using the data cursor and/or the rlocfind command (experiment with both). Sketch the root locus (by hand) and calculate the angles of departure for the unity-feedback system with the following foward transfer function: G(s) = K(s + 1) (s + 3)(s2 + 2s + 2)

Verify your answer by plotting the root locus in Matlab. Ch. 9: Question 1. For this question you should submit a written description of the design process in addition to a printout of your code and relevant plots. Providing only the nal answer is insucient.
