Ziegler-Nichols Tuning

StarStarStarStar

A heuristic method for tuning a PID controller based on characteristic system responses.

StarStarStarStar

Feedforward Control

StarStarStarStar

A control strategy that anticipates and compensates for disturbances before they affect the process.

StarStarStarStar

Phase Lag

StarStarStarStar

Occurs when the output of a system lags behind the input signal in terms of phase.

Root Locus

StarStarStarStar

A graphical method for determining the roots of the characteristic equation as the system parameters are varied.

Controllability

StarStarStarStar

The ability of a system to be driven from any initial state to any final state within a finite time frame, with appropriate input.

Actuator

StarStarStarStar

A component responsible for moving or controlling a mechanism or system.

StarStarStarStar

A type of control system that operates without using feedback.

StarStarStarStar

Stability

StarStarStarStar

The ability of a system to return to its steady state after a disturbance.

StarStarStarStar

Disturbance

StarStarStarStar

External inputs that can affect the performance of a control system but are not part of the reference input.

StarStarStarStar

Damping Ratio

StarStarStarStar

A dimensionless measure describing how oscillations in a system decay after a disturbance.

Bode Plot

StarStarStarStar

A graphical representation of a system's frequency response, plotted with magnitude and phase against frequency.

StarStarStarStar

Feedback Loop

StarStarStarStar

A system structure where the output is fed back to compare with the input to reduce error.

Sensor

StarStarStarStar

A device that detects or measures a physical property and records, indicates, or otherwise responds to it.

StarStarStarStar

System Type

StarStarStarStar

A classification of control systems based on the number of poles at the origin of the s-plane.

StarStarStarStar

PID Controller

StarStarStarStar

A control mechanism that uses the proportional, integral, and derivative actions to control a process.

StarStarStarStar

Phase Margin

StarStarStarStar

The additional phase lag at the gain crossover frequency required to bring a system to the verge of instability.

StarStarStarStar

Servomechanism

StarStarStarStar

A control system used for providing precise control of a mechanical position, velocity, or acceleration.
