    This is a continuation of the Control Systems Lectures. This video describes the benefit of being able to approximate a Bode plot by hand and explains what a Bode plot looks like for a simple transfer function; a real constant. This is the first of several videos where I will describe step by step how to estimate a Bode plot from any transfer function.
    I will be loading a new video each week and welcome suggestions for new topics. Please leave a comment or question below and I will do my best to address it. Thanks for watching!

    Holy crap man...I don't think you understand how well you are explaining all of this. My controls class would be so much better if the professor just hit play on your videos and walked out of the lecture hall.

    At the time of this comment, I am in second year of my university, preparing for finals and quizzes through your videos. And believe me when I say, your videos are the main reason I am interested in this subject, and the interest keeps developing. Your way of explaining concepts using examples that are easier to understand and comprehend is just amazing. In the years to come, if I decide to become a controls engineer, one of my main inspirations would be you and your channel. Thank you Brian, for these videos, and this channel.

    @fredtownsend7016 Před 2 lety

    I just ran onto your Chanel. I'm a 45 year old veteran of systems and find control systems theory a big help in areas you really wouldn't think of a control system. Yes I can do Bode plots without a computer! There is the academic world and there is the real world. Much of my early years in engineering was spent unlearning stuff I was taught in school. One that bit me was learning to inspect equations looking for Sin or Cosine functions in the denominator. Both of these functions pass through zero so you have a divide by zero problem which requires you to bound functions very carefully. Another one is the control systems for "Fly by Wire" fighter planes often have components in the right hand half-plane. How do you handle deliberate instabilities when you were taught to eliminate instabilities? Oh yes, screw up this one and people may die. No pressure!

    I had one query on the bode of constants, you mentioned that '+ve' constants have a 0deg phase. I have noticed in some books they tend to take a '+ve' constants to take 360deg. I presume both are right, but could you explain on it?

    I am not familiar with that calculator. However, an easy workaround is to keep track of the quadrant yourself and just use atan. Then apply negative or positive as necessary. Just draw your point on a unit circle and it should be easy to see which quadrant it's in.

  • @BrianBDouglas
    @BrianBDouglas  Před 11 lety

    Hmmm, I don't think I would use 360 deg for the phase shift of a '+ve' constant. I'm not saying the books are wrong, I just can't think of a reason right now why that would be useful (if you find out somewhere else could you respond again so that I know?) My reasoning is this: to me, an output with 360 phase appears to be the same phase shifted signal as the input, but I would say that it was delayed one whole cycle. A + constant doesn't delay the input at all so the phase shift is 0.
