In the Figure, f(t) is the actuating force that excites the system in order to produce the desired output x(t). On the other hand, fd(t) is the disturbance that works against actuating force and prevents the system to reach the desired output.
V1 (Force, Moment, etc.) Gact Actuators: Actuators are used to drive the engineering systems. DC motors, servo motors, hydraulic and pneumatic system elements are the basic type of actuating elements. The inputs of the actuators are also voltage. One can write a transfer function in order to model the behaviour of an actuator. (Voltage)
Sensors: Sensors are the basic components of a control system that are used to measure the output/outputs of the system in order to obtain a feedback signal. The output of a sensor is mainly a voltage signal. One can write a transfer function in order to relate the input and output of the sensor. The input of a sensor is a physical event, temperature, pressure, displacement, velocity, acceleration, magnetic flux, rate of the fluid flow etc.) (Voltage) Displacement,pressure, temperature V2 Gsens

Objective: The desired steady-state value of x(t) is 0.05 m. In this case, the sensor output voltage is calculated as The input voltage which is sufficient to obtain the output voltage, V2 is calculated as m=200 kgc=300 Ns/mk=5000 N/m The steady-state behaviour doesn’t include time variations and the system considered as static, then

The form of the transfer function of the controller is the most important parameter in a control application. Gcont can be Proportional, Derivative, Integralor a suitable combination of these three choices.
Kp is the proportional constont, Ki is the integral constant and Kd is the derivative constant. For proportional control, Gcont=Kp Vref=0.005 Volt, Fd=80 N Let’s take Kp=1000

STABILITY OF LINEAR CONTROL SYSTEMS Among the many forms of performance specifications used in design, the most important requirement is that the system be stable. An unstable system is generally considered to be useless. The stability of a control system is directly related to the location of the roots of the charactersitic equation D(s). s-plane j Stable region Unstable region 0 Stable region Unstable region

Routh-Hurwitz criterion: This criterion is an algebraic method that provides information about the stability of a linear time invariant system that has a characteristic equation with constant coefficients. The criterion tests whether any of the roots of characteristic equation lie in the right-half s-plane. The number of roots that lie on the j axis and in the right half plane is also indicated. s3 1 K+9 s2 5 3K+5 s1 0 s03K+5 0 All terms must have the same sign. The number of positive roots is equal to the change in the sign.
