Asymptotically
stable or stable

2. Using the Routh-Hurwitz criterion, determine the stability of the closed
loop control systems that have the following characteristic equations.

𝑠4 2 5 10

𝑠3 10 5 0
10 5 − (2)(5) 10 10 − (2)(0)
𝑠2 =4 = 10 0
10 10
4 5 − (10)(10)
𝑠1 = −20 0 0
4
−20 10 − (4)(0)
𝑠0 = 10 0 0
−20

Since there are two sign changes in the first column of the tabulation, the equation
has two roots in the right half of the s-plane.

loop control systems that have the following characteristic equations.

𝑠4 1 6 1

𝑠3 2 8 0

Since there are no sign changes in the first column of the tabulation, the equation
has no roots in the right half of the s-plane.

control system.

3. Consider the following open loop transfer function of a unity feedback
closed loop control system.
b) Determine the value of 𝐾 that will cause constant-amplitude
oscillations in the system and determine frequency of the oscillation.

𝑠2 2+𝐾 200𝐾
2 + 𝐾 30𝐾 − (1)(200𝐾) 𝐾(30𝐾 − 140)
𝑠1 = 0
2+𝐾 2+𝐾
𝑠0 200𝐾 0

4. The block diagram of a motor-control system with tachometer feedback is
shown a follows. Find the range of 𝐾𝑡 so that the system is asymptotically stable.
Tutorial 4
5. The block diagram of the control system is shown as follows. Find the
region in the 𝐾-versus-𝛼 plane for the system to be asymptotically stable.
