1.       What does modeling mean in control engineering?

This is also called control system engineering and it deal with the engineering discipline that is involved in applying different control theories for designing several control systems according to the requirement. And this is one of the most important branch of electrical engineering.

2.       Define the transfer function.

This is basically a mathematical function that is related to the output response of the system. Like a filter or any system.

The ratio of output over input is called a transfer function.

3.       What assumption is made concerning initial conditions when dealing with transfer functions?

You must have to make initial conditions are zero.

4.       Find the Laplace transform of the following functions.  Show all necessary work.

1.       Summarize the procedure for finding the transfer function when given an ODE.

In the first step you have to take a Laplace of the given differential equation of any order and that must with zero initial condition. Then for the transfer function you have to differentiate the output and the input. In the next step you just have to write the equation in output over input form and it can be written in compact notation.

  Find the transfer function for each ODE where x represents the output and r represent the input:

1.       Identify the input and the output then write the equation for the transfer function

Find the transfer function  for the transnational mechanical system shown in the figure below.
