Control Engineering Assignment ECEG 3112

The document outlines an assignment for an Introduction to Control Engineering course, detailing various problems related to control systems, including transfer functions, damping ratios, steady-state errors, and stability analysis using the Routh criterion. It requires calculations for system parameters, root locus sketches, and Bode plots for different systems. Students are expected to analyze and solve these problems to demonstrate their understanding of control engineering concepts.

1. A system having a forward path transfer function G(s) = and unity feedback.
𝑠(𝑆+1)
Determine the value of undamped natural frequency, damping ratio. If tachometer feedback
is introduced, the feedback path transfer function becomes (1+K). What should be the value
of K to obtain damping ratio of 0.6. Also calculate the percentage peak overshoot, first
undershoot, tp and settling time within the 2% of final value.
2. Consider the system shown in fig. 1. Determine the value of K such that the damping ratio 𝜉
is 0.5. Then obtain the rise time (tr), peak time (tp), maximum overshoot (Mp), and settling
time (ts) in the unit step response.

the steady-state error equal to or less than 0.1
4. For the system shown in Fig. 2, determine error co-constants. Also calculate the steady
state error for the following inputs:
i. A unit step input
ii. A unit velocity step velocity input
iii. A unit velocity acceleration input
