S(t) = c ω(t) () The resisting torque T w (t) of the ventilator is T w (t) = c 2 ω(t) 2 (2) The ventilator is driven by an electric motor, which produces a driving torque T m (t) T m (t) = k U(t) k k 2 ω(t) (3) Where U(t) is the armature voltage of the motor.

You are responsible for designing a cost efficient controller that stabilizes the pendulum at its upper position (the design of the controller C(s) is not a part of the question). The electronic amplifier (in Figure indicated by <<) that is already purchased, has a very high bandwidth. Therefore, it is considered to be an ideal amplifier. For the electric motors you have the choice among three different types. The corresponding Bode-plots that are available from the manufacturer, are given in Figure 2 (input signal U a (t) is the electric voltage, output signal u(t) is the force acting on the cart). The prices of the three electric motors are: EM- costs CHF, EM-2 costs 2 CHF, and EM-3 costs 3 CHF. The parameters of the pendulum are known from the documentation of the pendulum: m = 3 kg, M = kg, l =. m.

11 Question 8 (Problem 8) 6 Points Decide whether the following statements are true or false and check the corresponding check box with an X ( ). You are not required to justify your answers. All questions are equally weighted ( point). There will be a reduction of one point for a wrong answer. Unanswered questions will get points. The minimum sum for all questions is points. a) {x e = π 3,u e = π 6 } is the equilibrium of the system ẋ = cos(x) x + 2sin(u) u. b) The differential equation δẋ = π 2 δx+ π 2 δu is the linearization of the non-linear system ẋ = x 2 + sin(2x) u 2 around the equilibrium point {x e = π 4,u e = π 4 }. c) The following differential equation represents the model of a system: d 3 d2 d2 dt3y(t) + 2 dt2y(t) 5y(t) = 3 dt2u(t) + 4u(t) Hence the transfer function of the system is P(s) = 3s2 +4 s 3 +2s 2 5s. d) An unstable system with the transfer function s (s 5) can be stabilized by a P-controller. e) The Bode-diagram of a fifth order linear system has been accurately plotted, although it has two unstable poles. Nevertheless, this Bode-plot can be utilized to determine the range of the gain factor k p of a P-controller for which an asymptotic stable control system results. f) A PI-controller is used to control an asymptotic stable system. The time constant of the integral part of the controller T i is set to.3s. Starting at k p =, the controller gain will be gradually increased up to the critical gain factor. At the critical gain factor the time constant of the integral part will also be readjusted to.4s. As a consequence, the control system will be unstable. Be aware of this fact! /
