What is the definition of “overshoot” for question 5?
Submitted by: asa Submitted on: September 29, 2004 Identifier: H1 The homework assignment itself defines overshoot in context as “the maximum amount by which the ball goes past the desired resting point, expressed as a percentage of the commanded position.” However, it is unclear whether this might mean the first peak, the first valley (which may be larger in magnitude than any of the peaks) or simply the highest peak, regardless of whether it’s the first. Upon further consultation with a later chapter of the textbook, it gets a little more clear: In Chapter 3, overshoot is defined as the percentage by which the value initially rises above the final value. The book then continues to say that in cases where the first is not the largest, the term is ambiguous. For linear systems, this initial rise will always be the largest deviation from the desired value, so there’s no ambiguity. The example in problem 5 is nonlinear, so we enter the gray zone. From a practical standpoint as you do you
