ET495 Assignment

Introduction to Control Systems and Mathematical Models of Systems

1. Watch video “EE495 – Week 1 – Lecture”
2. Read Chapters 1-2 in the text Modern Control Systems, 12th Edition.
3. Work the following problems:
   1. The transfer function of a system is:  Y(s)/R(s) = 15(s+1)/(s2+9s+14).  Determine y(t) when r(t) is a unit step input.
   2. Consider the following system:
      • Find the closed-loop transfer function Y(s)/R(s) when G(s) = 10/(s2+2s+10)
      • Determine Y(s) when the input R(s) is a unit step.
      • Compute y(t).
4. Save work in a file with the title: “HW1_StudentID”, with your student id substituted in the file name.  Show all work for full credit.
5. Upload file “HW1_StudentID”
