COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS
Cost benefit analysis is important for control system
engineer in order to justify the expenditure for a particular
system.
For example:
An engineer incorporate a very intelligent controller for a
simple water level control. It is an overkill to use a very
intelligent controller for a simple system. The control
objective can be achieved by using a simple controller such
as PID.
GRAPH in CONTROL SYSTEM
In Control System, Graph is your friend. Don’t be intimidated by
graph. The objective of graph is to illustrate the data to the user.
So, the user can see the results clearly and perform necessary
calculations.
DON’T BE AFRAID/
CONFUSED WITH THIS

• Laplace transform
Circuit Analysis
• Ohm’s Law
• Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL)
• Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL)
• Mesh/Nodal/Thevenin analysis
GROUP WORK/ DISCUSSION
Assemble into a group of five. Name your group according to a well-known
scientist/engineer/technologist.
Give one example of a modern control system in real-life. You should also
identify the selected system’s;
• Sensor
• Actuator
• Controller
• Example of disturbance

Math Notes
Differentiation rules:
Power rule:
f(x)= 𝑥 𝑛 f’(x)= 𝑛𝑥 𝑛 -1
Product rule:
𝑦′(𝑥) = (𝑥 3 − 7𝑥 − 1)(5𝑥 + 2)
= x 3 − 7x − 1 5 + (3x 2 +7)(5x+2)
= 5x 3 + 35x − 5 + (15x 3 + 6𝑥 2 + 35𝑥 + 14)
= 20𝑥 3 + 6𝑥 2 + 70𝑥 + 9
