Problems 01

1. The document provides exercises related to dynamical systems and control from sources including a solved problems book and an aerospace engineering exam. 2. The exercises involve modeling a mechanical system with mass, damper and spring components, obtaining the transfer function and block diagram of the system. Additional exercises involve finding parameter values to achieve a specified response, plotting a Bode diagram, and modeling and analyzing the response of an aircraft to control input. 3. Suggested additional exercises involve mechanical, liquid level, thermal, electrical and wave energy converter systems as well as time response analysis and Bode diagrams.

Exercise 2.24 SPDSC


Consider the system in Figure 1 comprising a mass M, a damper with viscous friction coefficient B and a spring with
stiffness K . These elements are connected to a fixed pulley of radius r with inertia J. The system is driven by a torque
T.

1. Model the system, writing the equations that describe its dynamics.

2. Obtain the transfer function considering the torque T as input and the mass position x as output.

3. Sketch the system block diagram.

Exercise 3.30 SPDSC


Consider the mechanical system depicted in Figure 2. For the input force f (t) = 8.9 N, t ≥ 0, the output time response
x(t) (i.e. the displacement) has the evolution shown.

1. Find the values of mass M, viscous friction coefficient B and spring stiffness K .

2. Suppose we want the same steady-state regime and the same settling time, but a maximum overshoot of 0.15%.
What should the values of M, B and K be then?

Exercise from an Exam
Consider the Sopwith Camel, a fighter aircraft from World War I, in Figure 3. Its roll angle φ (rotation around the
x-axis) is given by

ṗ = −2p + 12δA (1)

where p = φ̇ and δA is the aileron deflection. All variables are given in SI units.

p
1. Find transfer function Gp = .

φ
2. Find transfer function Gφ = .

3. Sketch p(t) when the ailerons undergo a 1◦ step.

4. What is p(t) when t = 0.5 s?

5. Sketch φ(t) for the same input.

6. Suppose you want φ = 30◦ after 20 s. Without calculating φ(t), find an approximate value for the necessary
aileron deflection.
