Interpretation/Analysis

Familiarizing the generation and representation of the

homogenous solution of transfer function in part one of the
module, the homogenous solution was produced. This solution
made use of coefficients of the auxiliary equation to be able to
deduce the roots.The next step is to identify which of the three
cases the roots will fit into. The three cases are the following:
Case 1, real and distinct roots. Case 2, real and repeated. Case 3,
complex and conjugate roots. After identification of the case, the
values

are

then

substituted

to

form

the

homogenous

or

characteristic solution.
The

second

portion

of

the

module

exercised

the

determination of the particular solution of a transfer function.

DSOLVE command was used to extract this information. By
verifying the characteristic solution, the particular solution was
then determined. The characteristic equation was recognized first
because it is the same throughout the portion. The equation
remaining will be the particular solution.
The total solution in portion three was determined using the
same command as in part two.
The total solution in portion four was identified by using
Laplace transformation, of the particular solution, and conversion
of the S domain and T domain from characteristic solution. The
total solution in T domain was the result of taking the inverse

Laplace of the particular solution over the characteristic solution

which are both in S domain.
Using the RESIDUE command and the real and imaginary
numbers, the poles and zeroes of the transfer function in portion
five were deduced. The values of poles and zeroes were made use
to locate their position plotting them accordingly. The same
procedure was done in portion six.
The

partial

expansion

and

the

inverse

Laplace

was

determined in portion seven by using the EXPAND command

which found the coefficients of the numerator and denominator.
ILAPLACE command was then used to get the inverse Laplace
equivalent of a given equation directly.
The seatwork provided in the module was solved by
determining

the

transfer

function

via

KVL

and

Laplace

transformation. The V(c) was calculated by the relevance of the

impedance to the transfer function.

Conclusion
The ROOTS command, ROOTS([coefficients]) in MATLAB,
provides the roots of auxiliary equations derived from the
differential equation and in doing so achieves the characteristic or
homogenous solution.By using the DSOLVE command, the total
solution from the transfer function may be determined. Since

their sum constitutes the total solution, both the characteristic

and particular solutions were displayed.With the same equation,
the particular solution was derived but the characteristic solution
determined first was better in forming the particular solution. By
using the Laplace transform, the total solution may be solved,
taking the Laplace transform of the particular and characteristic
solutions, then dividing both by Y=particular soln/characteristic
soln, both in S domains, then y=ilaplace(Y) for inverse Laplace.
From a transfer function, by RESIDUE command, the poles and
zeroes were identified. The series RLC circuit graph plummets
first due to the inductor then rises. Steady state will be reached
after a while since there is a capacitor and a resistor.
