Test: Time Domain Analysis of Control Systems- 3 - Question 3

A system is shown in figure below

What are the values of K and α respectively so that the system has a damping ratio of 0.7 and an undamped natural frequency ωn of 4 rad/sec ?

Detailed Solution for Test: Time Domain Analysis of Control Systems- 3 - Question 3

From given block diagram, the closed loop transfer function is

Characteristic equation is,
s2 + (2 + Kα) s + K = 0
Here, ωn = -√K
and 2ξωn = (2 + kα)
Given, ωn = 4 rad/sec 
∴ K = 16
Also, ξ = 0.7
∴ 2 x 0.7 x 4 = (2 + 16α) 
or, (2 + 16α) = 5.6
or, 
α = 3.6/16 = 0.225

Test: Time Domain Analysis of Control Systems- 3 - Question 12

Assertion (A): The "dominant pole" concept is used to control the dynamic performance of the system, whereas the “insignificant poles” are used for the purpose of. ensuring that the controller transfer function can be realized by physical components.
Reason (R): if the magnitude of the real part of a pole is at least 5 to 10 times that of a dominant pole or a pair of complex dominant poles, the pole may be regarded as insignificant in so far as the transient response is concerned.

Detailed Solution for Test: Time Domain Analysis of Control Systems- 3 - Question 12


Both assertion and reason are true. However, the correct explanation of assertion is that the poles having real part magnitude 5 to 10 times of the magnitude of real part of dominant poles doesn't affect the transient response (dynamic performance) of the system to a great extent due to which they are termed as insignificant poies and hence are neglected for transient stability study purpose.

Test: Time Domain Analysis of Control Systems- 3 - Question 13

Assertion (A): The step-function input represents an instantaneous change in the reference input.
Reason (R): If the input is an angular position of a mechanical shaft, a step input represents the sudden rotation of the shaft.
(a) Both A and R are true and R is a correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true but R is not a correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true but R is false.
(d) A is false but R is true.

Test: Time Domain Analysis of Control Systems- 3 - Question 14

Consider the following statements related to second order control system with unit step input:
1. The right-half s-plane corresponds to negative damping.
2. Negative damping gives a response that doesn’t grows in magnitude without bound with time.
3. The imaginary axis corresponds to zero damping.
4. The maximum overshoot is often used to measure the relative stability of a control system.
5. Higher the damping in the system larger is the peak overshoot in the transient response of the system.
Which of the above statements is/are correct?

Detailed Solution for Test: Time Domain Analysis of Control Systems- 3 - Question 14

Negative damping gives a response that grows in magnitude without bound in time. Hence, statement-2 is false.
Since  therefore higher is the damping in the system, less is the peak overshoot of the system. Hence, statement-5 is not correct
