Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
You have a control system designed for a robotic arm with K_a = 15. Calculate the steady-state error for a parabolic input and discuss how altering K_a would impact performance.
💡 Hint: Use the given formula and reason out the implications of responsiveness.
Propose a design modification to a system where K_a is observed to be decreasing due to wear. Explain how this change would help reduce steady-state error.
💡 Hint: Consider ways mechanical reliability can influence control strategies.
