Why Modeling?
We use quantitative mathematical models of physical systems to design and
analyze control systems. The dynamic behavior is generally described by
ordinary differential equations. We will consider a wide range of systems,
including mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical. Since most physical systems are
nonlinear, we will discuss linearization approximations, which allow us to use
Laplace transform methods.
We will then proceed to obtain the inputoutput relationship for components and
subsystems in the form of transfer functions. The transfer function blocks can be
organized into block diagrams or signal-flow graphs to graphically depict the
interconnections. Block diagrams (and signal-flow graphs) are very convenient
and natural tools for designing and analyzing complicated control systems
Introduction
Six Step Approach to Dynamic System Problems
Define the system and its components
Formulate the mathematical model and list the necessary
assumptions
Write the differential equations describing the model
Solve the equations for the desired output variables
Examine the solutions and the assumptions
If necessary, reanalyze or redesign the system
Transfer Function
The transfer function of the plant is ratio of Laplace
transform of output to the Laplace transform of input
considering initial conditions to zero.
