Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Given a complex feedback control system with multiple components in series and parallel, describe how you would simplify the block diagram to analyze its stability.
💡 Hint: Break it down into smaller parts and systematically reduce.
Perform a frequency response analysis on G(s) = 2/(s^2 + 3s + 2) using both Bode and Nyquist methods. What conclusions about stability can you draw?
💡 Hint: Focus on the characteristics of the plots to assess stability.
