Control14 Routh - Hurwitz Criterion W Hand Written Note
Characteristic
Equation:
This array is continued horizontally and vertically until all the
coefficients are having zero value.
Routh–Hurwitz Stability Criterion
• For stability, all coefficients are either positive or
negative.
• Routh- Hurwitz criterion states that the number of
roots of D(s) with positive real parts is equals to
the number of changes in sign of the first column
of the Routh’s array, i.e. no changes in sign in the
first column for a stable system.
• There are two cases of interest: non-zero element
and one zero element on the first column of the
array.
