The advantages of Frequency response techniques over Root Locus technique.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Root locus represents the path of closed loop poles of given transfer function in s-plane as the system parameter changes whereas, frequency response represents the steady state response of given system for a sinusoidal input function.

The advantages of the Frequency response techniques compared to Root Locus technique are:

  • Sinusoidal test signal for various ranges of frequencies and amplitude are easily available, thus the experimental determination of frequency response is easily accomplished and most reliable but in case of in Root Locus it is hard to extract sinusoidal inputs.
  • In Root Locus, if the characteristic equation is complex or contain power of “e” cannot be evaluated but in Frequency Response technique such type of transfer function can be exactly applied and evaluated.
  • The design and parameter adjustment of open loop transfer function of a system for a specified closed loop performance can be carried out easily in Frequency domain as compared to Time domain.
  • The Root Locus technique is its inability to deal with the difficulty in dealing with time deal whereas Frequency Response handles correctly the time delays.

A crate weighs 530 lb and is hung by three ropes attached to a steel ring at A such that the top surface is parallel to the xy plane. Point A is located at a height of h = 42 in above the top of the crate directly over the geometric center of the top surface. Use the dimensions given in the table below to determine the tension in each of the three ropes. 2013 Michael Swanbom cc00 BY NC SA ↑ Z C b B У a D Values for dimensions on the figure are given in the following table. Note the figure may not be to scale. Variable Value a 30 in b 43 in 4.5 in The tension in rope AB is 383 x lb The tension in rope AC is 156 x lb The tension in rope AD is 156 x lb
A block of mass m hangs from the end of bar AB that is 7.2 meters long and connected to the wall in the xz plane. The bar is supported at A by a ball joint such that it carries only a compressive force along its axis. The bar is supported at end B by cables BD and BC that connect to the xz plane at points C and D respectively with coordinates given in the figure. Cable BD is elastic and can be modeled as a linear spring with a spring constant k = 400 N/m and unstretched length of 6.34 meters. Determine the mass m, the compressive force in beam AB and the tension force in cable BC.
