We use quantitative mathematical models of physical systems to design and

analyze control systems. The dynamic behavior is generally described by
ordinary differential equations. We will consider a wide range of systems,
including mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical. Since most physical systems are
nonlinear, we will discuss linearization approximations, which allow us to use
Laplace transform methods.

We will then proceed to obtain the inputoutput relationship for components and
subsystems in the form of transfer functions. The transfer function blocks can be
organized into block diagrams or signal-flow graphs to graphically depict the
interconnections. Block diagrams (and signal-flow graphs) are very convenient
and natural tools for designing and analyzing complicated control systems

The Partial-Fraction Expansion (or Heaviside expansion theorem)
Suppose that
The partial fraction expansion indicates that F(s) consists of
a sum of terms, each of which is a factor of the denominator.
The values of K1 and K2 are determined by combining the
individual fractions by means of the lowest common
denominator and comparing the resultant numerator
coefficients with those of the coefficients of the numerator
before separation in different terms.

Evaluation of Ki in the manner just described requires the simultaneous solution of n equations.
An alternative method is to multiply both sides of the equation by (s + pi) then setting s= - pi, the
right-hand side is zero except for Ki so that

Signal-Flow Graph Models
For complex systems, the block diagram method can become
difficult to complete. By using the signal-flow graph model, the
reduction procedure (used in the block diagram method) is not
necessary to determine the relationship between system variables.
