    Engineering Find the state space solution for a circuit

    Homework Statement Find the state space solution, the output is Vo Homework Equations VL = L*di/dt IC = 1/C*(integral of current) KCL KVL The Attempt at a Solution I tried to apply KCL and KVL but still can't figure it out. This one has been driving me nuts for 4 days.

    The dimensionality of the state space of a quantum system

    Hi, I haven't posted for a while. I've seen this topic come up a few times, but it always seems to me that a few points aren't made clear. Can I just check the following is true? 1) The state space of a quantum system is always an infinite-dimensional seperable Hilbert space i.e. a Hilbert...

    State space modeling of parallel capacitors

    Hi there, I have been thinking about how to actually describe a system input filter consisting of several caps and an inductance in the state-space representation. The topology follows: a DC source to inductor to two parallel caps that are referenced to the same potential as the voltage...

    The state space in quantum field theory

    I'm a grad student in math, and I've been trying to learn some physics on the side by taking some classes and reading books. I took a class on quantum field theory last semester that was taught out of Srednicki; the class was very good, but I found myself at the end with a conceptual question...

    Obtaining state space from transfer functions

    1. The problem statement I have a MIMO system with two inputs and two outputs. I have all transfer functions between inputs and outputs. I want to obtain a state space model that describes this system. All transfer functions are of 3rd degree. Homework Equations "Transfer matrix": HP(s)=[H11...

    State Space control dervatives of input in B matrix.

    Hi guys, I am trying to put a series of differential equations into sate space form. The problem that I have come up against is that I end up with a differential in my B term (control matrix) and I am unsure of how to deal with this. Is there an easy way of doing this? Does anyone have any...

    State Space Analyis - the 'B' matrix

    Below is a screen shot from state space analysis in "Control Engineering" by Ogata. http://www.flickr.com/photos/66943862@N06/6230432028/" I am trying to get at 3-20 from 3-18. Can't the u part of the matrix also be written as [1/m 0]T instead of [0 1/m]T? What's the rationale in choosing...

    Writing Output in State Space Form: RLC Circuit Example

    the general form of state space output is y=cx+du which means that output is linear combination of state variables and inputs my question is can we write output in this form when our output is not combination of state variable for example in rlc circuit state variables are vc and IL now if we...

    State space and its subspace : finding a basis

    Hello. I really need help with this one: Homework Statement I have a 3 dimensional state space H and its subspace H1 which is spanned with |Psi> = a x1 + b x2 + c x3 and |Psi'> = d x1 + e x2 + f x3 Those two "rays" are linearly independent and x1, x2, and x3 is an...

    State space representations in LTI systems

    I just started my first graduate level controls class this semester, and it looks like my professors notes aren't going to be quite enough. Can anybody recommend a good book with lots of state space representation examples, or if not a book, a website would do fine as well. Thanks for any help.

    Control Systems, State space to Transfer Function

    Hi guys, Need a little help with an example my tutor and I are trying to work through. We're converting a dynamics system from a state space representation to a transfer function. This is where we are at so far... [s^2 + (C/Mb)S + (K1/Mb), -((C)S + K1)/Mb; -((C)S + K1)/Mw, S^2 +...

    State space, beginner's question

    Background. I recently started reading A Quantum Mechanics Primer by Daniel T. Gillespie. I'm up to the section on Banach spaces in Kreyszig's Introductory to Functional Analysis with Applications, and have looked ahead to the chapter on applications to quantum mechanics, Ch. 11. I've also read...

    State Space Form of Projectile EOM with Air Resistance

    I have equations of motion for a projectile with air resistance: where q = [x; y] m \ddot{q_1} = -k \dot{q_1} m \ddot{q_2} = -k \dot{q_2} - mg I need to convert it into state space form, with the state X = [q; \dot{q}]. I'm told state-space form is a first order vector ODE: \dot{X} = [\dot{q}...

    State Space What does u(.) mean

    I am trying to understand what is meant by u(.) in control systems, specifically in regards to state space representation. To give context, " Find a control law u(.) which steers the state of" then a the A and B matrices are given (0; 0) to (1; 0) in one unit of time. I don't need help solving...

    Uncontrollable States in State Space

    Hi Guys/Gals If you end up with a row of zeros in the controllability matrix for a linear state space system, does that row correspond with the state that is uncontrollable eg. Assuming a linear state space system with 5 states, a row of zeros in the 4th row of the controllability matrix...

    Control theory: Laplace versus state space representation

    I'm taking a course in control theory, and have been wondering for a while what the benefits are when you describe a system based on the Laplace method with transfer functions, compared to when you use the state space representation method. In particular, when using the Laplace method you are...

    Rough Description of State Space

    I have done only a small bit of reading/studying of quantum mechanics. So, from what I have gathered thus far, I have the following rough semi-graphical description of state space: Imagine a space in which you have a lot, but a definite number of discrete points. Each of those points (state...
