EEE 325 Control Systems: Lab Assessment

This lab report summarizes work done on a control systems lab involving a rectilinear plant. The objectives were to model a translational mechanical system, obtain various responses through computation, and observe the system on a rectilinear plant. Transfer functions of masses attached with dampers and springs were calculated. Step, impulse, ramp, parabolic and sinusoidal responses were determined through MATLAB coding and observed via graphs. The lab demonstrated modeling of a mass damper system and finding transfer functions to understand its behavior under different inputs.

System and to Calculate Its Various Responses
Objectives
To demonstrate the key components of a translational mechanical system, model the system and finally to obtain
various responses using computation and observe it on Rectilinear plant.

Equipment/Tools required:
Rectilinear Plant with controller interfaced with PC

Introduction:

CRITICAL ANALYSIS:

The objectives of this lab were to learn about translational mechanical system, model the system and finally to
obtain various responses using computation and observe it on rectilinear plant. The modelling elements of a
translational mechanical system include mass, spring and damper. Mass is an element which resists the motion
due to inertia. In this phenomenon of mass damper systems physically by using Rectilinear Plant with controller
interfaced with PC. Transfer function of different masses attached with dampers and springs are found. This
process of finding transfer functions is called modelling. The experimental rectilinear control system is comprised
of the three subsystems the first of these is the electromechanical plant which consists of the spring/mass
mechanism, its actuator and sensors.
