What is the transfer function of a second-order system?
Look for the equation related to the transfer function.
Define the damping ratio (ζ).
It relates to how quickly oscillations decay.
What does the damping ratio (ζ) affect in a second-order system?
Reflect on how damping changes with higher values.
True or False: A critically damped system has oscillations.
Recall what critical damping implies.
Given a system with a transfer function G(s) = 10 / (s² + 4s + 10), identify the damping ratio and natural frequency.
Identify coefficients from the standard form.
For an underdamped system, if the rise time is known, how would you adjust the damping ratio to improve settling time? Illustrate with an example.
Look closely at the trade-off between different parameters.
