Chapter nineteen
Dynamic responses of systems
Objectives
The objectives of this chapter are that, after studying it, the reader should be able to:
- Model dynamic systems by means of differential equations.
- Determine the outputs of first-order systems to inputs and determine time constants.
- Determine the outputs of second-order systems to inputs and identify the under-damped, critically damped and over-damped conditions.
- Describe the characteristics of second-order system responses in terms of rise time, overshoot, subsidence ratio, decrement and settling time.
19.1 Modelling dynamic systems
The most important function of a model devised for measurement or control systems is to be able to predict what the output will be for a particular ...
