Transcribed Image Text:Q2
The position of an elevator h(s) is controlled by means of lifting cables. A feedback
control system is used to control the force applied by the cables to the elevator. The
transfer function of the plant is,
1
Gp(s) =
Controller
Elevator
hr(s)
h(s)
E(s)
G.(s)
GP(s)
A unit step input is provided. If only proportional control is used, show that the
position of the elevator oscillates about the reference value of 1. Find the period
(a)
of this oscillation.
(b)
Show that the addition of derivative action to the system can ensure a non-
oscillatory response. Find a relation between the derivative and proportional
gains that ensures the response is non-oscillatory.
(c)
When the proportional and derivative gains are set to Kp = 9 and Kd = 6,
respectively, find the damping ratio and natural frequency of the system. Derive
the time-domain response of the elevator for a unit step input and confirm that
it is not oscillatory.
