A study on performance and fragility of controllers: PR and PD

https://doi.org/10.58571/CNCA.AMCA.2022.010

Resumen: This paper presents a study on the fragility and performance of two linear controllers for second-order systems: proportional retarded control (PR) and proportional derivative control (PD). The study is carried out through an analysis of the corresponding characteristic equation of the closed-loop system. In the case of the PR control, Taylor’s theorem is used to show that if there exits a root of multiplicity three, it is necessarily dominant.
