Experiment No. 01 Name of The Experiment: Modeling of Physical Systems and Study of Their Open Loop Response Objective

This experiment involves modeling physical systems and studying their open-loop response. The objectives are to model physical systems, study how their response varies with parameters like damping coefficient and mass, and simulate a cruise control system or DC motor. The document describes modeling a car control system using equations of motion and deriving its transfer function. It presents sample MATLAB code and output graphs showing how the step response varies with mass and friction coefficient. It also provides study materials on characteristics of step responses and how varying mass and friction affects steady-state speed and rise time. The document discusses conducting similar experiments by varying parameters for a car control system and DC motor model.

Name of the experiment: Modeling of Physical systems and study of their open loop response

Objective:
(i) The objective of this experiment is the modeling of physical systems and study of
their open loop response.
(ii) Study open loop system with the variation of parameters, such as damping coefficient
and mass
(iii) Simulation of a cruise control system / a dc motor

Introduction:

Physical Interpretation & system equations:


Let us assume a car that travels only in one direction. Control to the car was applied in such a
way that it has a smooth start up, along with a constant-speed ride. The force applied is ‘f [newton]’,
velocity at any time is ‘v [m/sec]’ and frictional constant=b [n.sec/m]. The frictional force is linearly
proportional to velocity [fb proportional to v]. So the applied force, ‘u’ accelerates the mass while
overcoming the frictional force.

Fig. 1: Car/Rickshaw/Van control system

If it is assumed that friction is opposing the motion of the car, then the modeling equations become
fm+fb = f
ma + bv = f
𝑑2𝑥 𝑑𝑥
𝑚 2+ 𝑏 = 𝑓
𝑑𝑡
𝑑𝑣 𝑑𝑡
𝑚 + 𝑏𝑣 = 𝑓
𝑑𝑡
Output, Y= v
Mathematical analysis:

Taking the Laplace transform of the equations, we find


msV(s) + bV(s) = F(s)
Y(s) = V(s)

Substituting V(s) in terms of Y(s), msY(s) + bY(s) = F(s)


The transfer function of the system becomes
(𝑠) 1
=
𝐹(𝑠) 𝑚𝑠 + 𝑏

Study materials:

1. Define rise time, settling time, percentage overshoot and steady state error of a system
for step input.

Answer: Rise time (Tr) :


Time required for the response to rise from 0% to 100% of its final value.
Settling time (Ts) :
Time required for the response to reach and stay within the range about the final value of
size specified z
Overshoot percentage (P.O.) :
The amount the system output response proceeds beyond the desired response.

Where,
M Pt  fv M Pt = The peak value of the time response.
Percent Overshoot(P.O.)  100%
fv fv = The final value of the response.
Steady State Error:
The error when the time is large and the transient response has decayed, leaving the
continuous response.

2. How steady state speed, rise time and overshoot of the output response vary with the
variation of m and b?

Answer: In Figure 1, Friction (b) is fixed Mass (m) has been varied. We take 5 different values for
Mass (m) respectively 200, 400, 600, 800, and 1000. If we observe the graph, we can find that Rise
time is increasing as Mass (m) increases. If we calculate overshoot percentage for given value we find
it Zero.
In Figure 2, Mass (m) is kept fixed and Friction (b) varied. We measure the rise time for five
different values of Friction (b) and the values are 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50. From the graph, we can see
that Rise time and steady state speed is decreasing as Friction (b) increases. Overshoot percentage
value is Zero for measured value.

3. Justify that the steady state speed of the vehicle depends only on the friction coefficient b.
dv
Answer: We Know that for un it mass system, u  _  bv
dt
dv
Here v is fixed, so 0
dt
Then u  bv
u
 v 
b
Here u is fixed for figure 1 and Figure 2.
So, v is only depends on the friction Co-efficient b
