Block Diagram Algebra refers to the mathematical methods used to manipulate and simplify block diagrams. This algebra involves various operations such as addition, multiplication, and feedback ...

The blocks represent mathematical operations or transfer functions, and lines connecting them denote signal flow. Through block diagram algebra, engineers can manipulate these diagrams using rules for ...

Using block-diagram algebra generates the closed-loop transfer function: Equating the characteristic equation’s coefficients to the desired coefficients determines the values of K, a, and b: ...

This paper deals with computer simulation of nonlinear control systems specified in the form of so-called generalized transfer functions. It briefly summarizes the underlying theoretical concepts, ...

This paper presents a second-order sliding mode controller for active suspension systems. The proposed controller, which occurs a limit cycle as the second-order sliding mode, is designed by the ...
