Control Assignment - 1

This document contains 5 sections that discuss control engineering concepts. Section 1 asks the reader to comment on the stability of a closed-loop system as the gain is increased from 1 to 100 for specific cases, and to plot pole-zero locations and step responses in Matlab. Section 2 asks about applying the final value theorem to unstable systems. Section 3 asks about dominant pole approximation for a DC motor transfer function. Section 4 asks to find transfer functions and plot step responses for an active suspension system model. Section 5 provides pre-requisites and asks various questions about Laplace and Fourier transforms.
