MATLAB/SIMULINK ANALYSIS OF SECOND ORDER SYSTEM TRANSIENT RESPONSE

OGHENEAKPOBO JONATHAN EYENUBO

Abstract


Abstract: The aim of this paper is to develop a systemic methodology for second order circuits by switched DC sources. The paper presents a unified approach through Matlab/Simulink to determining the transient response of linear RC, RL and RLC circuits; and although the methods presented in the chapter focus only on first and second order circuits, the approach to the transient solution is quite general. Practical applications of the second order circuits are presented and analogies are introduced to emphasize the general nature of the solution methods and their applicability to a wide range of physical systems.

Key Words: RC, RL and RLC circuits, Second Order System, Overdamped System, Critically damped System, Underdamped System
