These chapters give an introduction to feedback. Why is feedback needed? What framework do I need to analyse feedback loops and behaviour? How can tools such as MATLAB be used to support this analysis and finally an introduction to basic feedback compensation laws such as proportional and integral.
This set of videos introduces feedback concepts and demonstrates how feedback design has a huge and important impact on the world around us. The tenth video provides a number of tutorial questions on quantifying the effect of proportional feedback on behaviours of 2nd order systems. The video also provides worked solutions, several of which are backed up by MATLAB demonstrations.
This set of videos introduces feedback concepts and demonstrates how feedback design has a huge and important impact on the world around us. The 11th video provides a number of tutorial questions on quantifying the effect of proportional feedback on behaviours of high order systems. The video also provides worked solutions, all of which utlise MATLAB demonstrations, as the associated algebra is non-trivial.
This set of videos introduces feedback concepts and demonstrates how feedback design has a huge and important impact on the world around us. The seventh video continues the focus on quantifying the effect of proportional feedback on behaviours and here focuses on second order systems.
This set of videos introduces feedback concepts and demonstrates how feedback design has a huge and important impact on the world around us. The fifth video begins the task of quantifying the effect of feedback on behaviours by focussing on proportional feedback with first order systems. This quantification is needed to enable design, that is the selection of feedback to achieve the desired system behaviour.
This set of videos introduces feedback concepts and demonstrates how feedback design has a huge and important impact on the world around us. The sixth video continues the focus on quantifying more explicitly the effect of proportional feedback on 1st order behaviours and looks at this for a generic system.
This set of videos introduces feedback concepts and demonstrates how feedback design has a huge and important impact on the world around us. The ninth video provides a number of tutorial questions on quantifying the effect of proportional feedback on behaviours of 1st order systems. The video also provides worked solutions, several of which are backed up by MATLAB demonstrations.
This set of videos introduces feedback concepts and demonstrates how feedback design has a huge and important impact on the world around us. The eighth video continues the focus on quantifying the effect of proportional feedback on behaviours and here focuses on high order systems.
This set of videos introduces feedback concepts and demonstrates how feedback design has a huge and important impact on the world around us. The third video looks at how feedback can be automated, that is how do we remove the human from the process.
This set of videos introduces feedback concepts and demonstrates how feedback design has a huge and important impact on the world around us. Specifically, feedback allows us to moderate the behaviours of systems to ensure that the behaviour is desirable. The first video demonstrates the weaknesses in allowing systems to behave with so called open-loop dynamics, that is with no feedback.
This set of videos introduces feedback concepts and demonstrates how feedback design has a huge and important impact on the world around us. The second video introduces the concepts of feedback by demonstrating that this is implicit in human behaviour and is a key mechanism that enables us to control the world around us.
This set of videos introduces feedback concepts and demonstrates how feedback design has a huge and important impact on the world around us. The fourth video introduces concepts of how feedback moderates behaviour and shows that there are many types of feedback and they result in different behaviours. This is introduced in a qualitative fashion.
