Question: Q1 Controller Design (total 20 points) A linearized model of a boom lift (assuming the boom length is constant) is given by thetaDoubledot - a*theta
Q1 Controller Design (total 20 points) A linearized model of a boom lift (assuming the boom length is constant) is given by thetaDoubledot - a*theta = u whereu(t)is the adjusted torque provided by the hydraulic system at the base. a = 0.2is a factor depending on the inertia and dimensions of the system. You want to reach an anglethetaof 1 rad (starting from zero). Design, using rootlocus techniques, a controller, and if needed pre-filter to meet the following specifications. 1) Steady state value of angle is 1 rad 2) Settling time of angle response is less than 10s 3) Overshoot of the angleis less than 5% 4) The maximummagnitudeof theuis less than 0.5 (hard but possible) Type below the answers to the following as a numbered list
- What is the plant G(s)?(3 points) If unsure, use G = 2.01/((s- 0.45)*(2*s+0.89)) at the cost of 3 points.
- What is the controller (and if needed pre-filter) that you ended up using?(2 points) Note:Don\'t cancel the UNSTABLE poleof the plant! In reality, the poles are not exactly known and you don\'t want to inexactly cancel an unstable pole.
- What was the final (i.e. steady state) value of the angle you got?(3 points)
- What was the settling time of the angle response you got?(3 points)
- What was the overshoot of the angle response you got?(3 points)
- What was the maximum magnitude of the u(t) you got?(3 points)
- What should be the value ofr ,that is, the value of the desiredy. (2 points)
- Draw the block diagram properly, and arrange it so that you can use sisotool.(4 points) I don\'t need to see your block diagram though. Just type below the exact commands to open sisotool. I want to see what you used as G and what you called K. If unsure, simply use G = (1.02*s+9.8)/(0.11*s^2 + 1.01*s+ 10.03) to open the sisotool and for the rest of the problem, at the cost of 3 points.
- To meet thederror specification, 20log10|GK|should be larger than what value?(3 points) Hint: If unsure, please use |GK| > 25dB for the rest of the problem.
- To meet the noise error specification, 20log10|GK|should be smaller than what value?(3 points) Hint: If unsure, please use |GK|
- Type theproperK(s) you ended up using?(3 points) Be very careful in reporting this!
- What was the phase margin you obtained?(3 points)
- What was the gain margin you obtained?(2 points)
- Write a linearized plant differential equation from the steering angle? (as input) to the coordinatey(as output). (6 points) It is a relationship between?andyand their derivatives (and no other variables!) If unsure, then use plant TF from?toyas1/(s*(s+0.1)) and proceed with the rest of the question.
