Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

You have a control system that exhibits excessive oscillation during performance testing. Using the Ziegler-Nichols method, how would you proceed to find the gain settings?

💡 Hint: Try to recall what conditions indicate successful tuning according to Ziegler-Nichols.

Challenge 2 Hard

Consider a manufacturing process that requires real-time adjustments to its controls due to varying load conditions. Evaluate the benefits of using adaptive tuning over static tuning methods.

💡 Hint: Think about the challenges of adapting a static system to variable conditions.
