Worksheet 4 - Solutions to Starred Problems


Semester 2, 2021

1. The transfer function of the second order system is usually written as


ωn2 ωn2
H(s) = =
s2 + 2ζ ωn s + ωn2 (s + ζ ωs )2 + ωn2 (1 − ζ 2 )
So the characteristic equation is
(s + ζ ωn )2 + ωn2 (1 − ζ 2 ) = 0
and for 0 ≤ ζ < 1, the root of the characteristic equation are

(b) • If the settling time is 9.2sec, then ζ ωn = 0.5 and therefore the poles should be
exactly on the line ζ ωn = 0.5.
• To make the rise time small, we need to make ωn large as tr = 1.8ωn .
• The overshoot condition is satisfied if the poles are located in the highlighted
area in Figure 2.
The location of the poles that satisfy the above conditions are shown in Figure 5.

3. Rise time is a measure of how fast the system reacts to a change in its input, and settling
time is a measure of how fast the system can settle down to steady state with a desired miss

ratio (that is, how fast the system’s transient decays). So depending on the application,
both rise time and settling time can be used as measures of how fast the response is. In
other words, depending on how we define a faster response, the controller can be designed
such that we have a lower rise time or a lower settling time.
In this specific problem, we have two responses in which the rise times are close to each
other (0.5sec and 1sec) while the settling times are very different (4sec and 10sec). Because
of this big difference in the settling times, we say that the response with tr = 1sec and
ts = 4sec is faster. See the following step responses to compare the responses of these two
systems.
