Proportional control, Integral control

AI Thread Summary
Proportional control (P control) and integral control (I control) are key concepts in control theory, where 'a' represents proportional gain and 'b' represents integral gain. A small change in proportional gain can lead to significant variations in system output, indicating the sensitivity of the system to this parameter. For proper nomenclature, terms like "gain" and "system output" are commonly used in control theory literature. Recommended resources for studying these concepts include textbooks on control systems and engineering principles. Understanding these fundamentals is essential for effective system management and optimization.

I want to know the proper nomenclature about control theory.

Problem is below.

" There is the system, which is controlled by P control or I control (anything is Ok.) where a is proportional gain and b is integral gain. When proportional gain, a is slightly changed, system output is big different. "

What is the proper nomenclature or name?
Which book is helpful for studying?

Could you explain what 'system output is big different' means?
 

Thread 'HP Required to move a robot 10meters at 1.5m/sec'

I need some assistance with calculating hp requirements for moving a load. - The 4000lb load is resting on ball bearing rails so friction is effectively zero and will be covered by my added power contingencies. Load: 4000lbs Distance to travel: 10 meters. Time to Travel: 7.5 seconds Need to accelerate the load from a stop to a nominal speed then decelerate coming to a stop. My power delivery method will be a gearmotor driving a gear rack. - I suspect the pinion gear to be about 3-4in in...

Thread 'Turbocharging carbureted petrol 2 stroke engines'

Hi everyone, online I ve seen some images about 2 stroke carbureted turbo (motorcycle derivation engine). Now.. In the past in this forum some members spoke about turbocharging 2 stroke but not in sufficient detail. The intake and the exhaust are open at the same time and there are no valves like a 4 stroke. But if you search online you can find carbureted 2stroke turbo sled or the Am6 turbo. The question is: Is really possible turbocharge a 2 stroke carburated(NOT EFI)petrol engine and...

Thread 'Bubble formation in 4 mm gap vessel'

How did you find PF?: Via Google search Hi, I have a vessel I 3D printed to investigate single bubble rise. The vessel has a 4 mm gap separated by acrylic panels. This is essentially my viewing chamber where I can record the bubble motion. The vessel is open to atmosphere. The bubble generation mechanism is composed of a syringe pump and glass capillary tube (Internal Diameter of 0.45 mm). I connect a 1/4” air line hose from the syringe to the capillary The bubble is formed at the tip...
