Abstract

Analyzing the simulation results is a crucial factor for determining an automatic machine's stability, accuracy, and repetitiveness. The operating conditions depend on many uncontrolled factors, such as ambient temperature, noise, surrounding vibration, and electric power fluctuations. The effect of these factors can be diminished if the time response of every component is known since the command sequence can be adjusted to avoid overlapping the transient responses with steady-state conditions. For linear systems, the time response can be determined from the transfer function, but for nonlinear systems, the transient response must be determined from simulation results. This chapter presents the application of the transfer function to simple cases and other techniques for the analysis of complex nonlinear systems. This chapter also includes the relationship between the dynamic simulation and the controller and recommendations for reviewing the definition of command sequence for better controlling and automatic machine.
