The objective of this lab is to review of the behavior of second-order systems. Students will gain a better understanding of the importance system identification. Students will also develop a hands-on understanding of the concept of hardware gain and why it will play a crucial role in controller design. System Identification will be implemented in LabVIEW using the System Identification Toolkit.

System identification for the torsional plant

Objectives

  • Understand the dynamic equivalence between rotational and translational systems.
  • Perform system identification using two different methods and compare the results.

Pre-lab

  • Assume that the least squares estimate has already been found for the unloaded and loaded sine sweep tests, so x ˆ d1 , x ˆ d2 , x ˆ d3 , x ˉ ˆ d1 , x ˉ ˆ d2 , x ˉ ˆ d3 are known values. Formulate the linear least squares equation to estimate the 9 individual plant parameters. In other words, find the y vector and H matrix that would go into the equation y = H x + ε where the vector of parameters to be estimated, x , is defined as x = J d1 J d2 J d3 c 1 c 2 c 3 k 1 k 2 k h w
  • Outline the experimental steps you will take to identify the torsional plant using the second-order model method similar to Lab #2. Your procedure should allow you to find J d1 , J d3 , c 1 , c 3 , k 1 , k 2 , and k h w . You may exclude the procedure for identifying the inertia and damping for disk 2. When formulating your procedures, remember that disks 2 and 3 can be clamped, disk 1 cannot.

Lab procedure

System identification using least squares

  • Configure the plant with all three disks rotating freely and no brass weights attached.
  • Perform a 1638 count (0.5V) linear sine sweep from 0 to 8 H z with a sweep time of 20 seconds. When the execution is complete, enter a file name such as 3DiskSweepUnloaded and save the raw data from the front panel.
  • Now load two 0.5 k g brass weights onto each of the three disks so their centers are 9.0 c m from the axis of rotation.
  • Perform the sine sweep again. Enter a file name such as 3DiskSweepLoaded and save the raw data.
  • You are now ready to identify the system parameters using least squares estimation.

System identification using second-order model

  • Follow the steps you outlined in the pre-lab to identify the system parameters using the second-order model method.

Post-lab

  • Complete the table below; remember to include units.
    Post Lab Table
  • How close are your least-squares values compared to your second-order model values. Can you explain any discrepanciesbetween them. Which method do you think is more accurate?

lack electricity and its more savely than electronic microscope because its naturally by using of light
Abdullahi Reply
advantage of electronic microscope is easily and clearly while disadvantage is dangerous because its electronic. advantage of light microscope is savely and naturally by sun while disadvantage is not easily,means its not sharp and not clear

in what situation (s) would be the use of a scanning electron microscope be ideal and why?
Kenna Reply
A scanning electron microscope (SEM) is ideal for situations requiring high-resolution imaging of surfaces. It is commonly used in materials science, biology, and geology to examine the topography and composition of samples at a nanoscale level. SEM is particularly useful for studying fine details,
