A second order system has the following standart form;
http://controls-design.com/mathtex/mathtex.cgi?H%28s%29%3DK%5Cfrac%7B%5Comega_n%5E2%7D%7Bs%5E2%2B2%5Czeta%5Comega_n%20s%2B%5Comega_n%5E2%7D%20%5Cmbox%7B%20for%20%7D%200%20%5Cle%20%5Czeta%20%5Cle%201
However, sometimes the system I confront, doesn't hold that equation. I mean something like
s+1/(s^2 + 5s + 3)
At that point, it looks like the s+1 term on the numerator corresponds to Wn^2
But it shouldn't be if I'm not mistaken.
So, what am I supposed to do in such cases, in order to find the let's say damping ratio ?
