12.1 A process has the transfer function,

\[ 
G(s) = \frac{K}{(10s + 1)(5s + 1)} 
\]

where \( K \) has a nominal value of \( K = 1 \). PID controller settings are to be calculated using the Direct Synthesis approach with \( \tau_c = 5 \) min. Suppose that these controller constants are employed and that \( K \) changes unexpectedly from 1 to \( 1 + \alpha \).

(a) For what values of \( \alpha \) will the closed-loop system be stable?

(b) Suppose that the PID controller constants are calculated using the nominal value of \( K = 1 \) but it is desired that the resulting closed-loop system be stable for \( |\alpha| \leq 0.2 \). What is the smallest value of \( \tau_c \) that can be used?

(c) What conclusions can be made concerning the effect that the choice of \( \tau_c \) has on the robustness of the closed-loop system to changes in steady-state gain \( K \)?
