y(t), ...)
Linear static systems follow equations like
y(t) = kx(t)
For example, voltage and current follow Ohms law: V = Ri.

First-Order Systems
First-order systems are described by the I/O differential
equation
c + c = r(t)
or in TF form
1
C(s)
=
R(s) s + 1
The number is called the time constant of the
system.
Step Response
Applying the unit step input R(s) =
1
s
c(t) = 1 e

First-order systems cannot track a ramp command. The tracking error is always equal to the
time constant.

Second-Order Systems
The standard form of a second-order system is:
wn2
C(s)
=
R(s) s2 + 2wn s + wn2
where wn and are called the natural frequency (in
rad/s) and damping ratio (dimensionless), respectively.
The response will depend on the nature of the poles:
Marginally Stable: = 0
Critically Damped: = 1
Overdamped: > 1

The damped natural frequency is the one obtained by counting the cycles per
unit time in an experimental (and underdamped) response and converting the
result to radians per second.
