BMS College of Engineering, Bangalore-560019: December 2015 Semester End Main Examinations

1. The document provides instructions for a Control Engineering exam with 5 questions across 5 units. Students are asked to answer 5 full questions by selecting one from each unit. 2. The questions in Unit 1 ask students to define a control system, compare open and closed loop systems, and show two systems are analogous. Unit 2 questions involve finding transfer functions from block diagrams and using Mason's rule. Unit 3 asks about a feedback system stability using a root locus. Unit 4 involves sketching polar and Nyquist plots to find gain and phase margins. Unit 5 concerns transfer functions of RLC circuits and explanations of controllability and observability.

6. A ship's roll can be stabilized with a control system. A voltage applied to the fins' 20
actuators creates a roll torque that is applied to the ship. The ship, in response to the
roll torque, yields a roll angle. Assuming the block diagram for the roll control
system to be as shown in the Fig 6.a, from Bode plots, determine the gain and phase
margins for the system.
