Assignmentt 3

The Stability of Linear Feedback Systems

1. Watch video “EE495 – Week 3 – Lecture”
2. Read Chapter 6 in the text Modern Control Systems, 12th Edition.
3. Work the following problems:
   1. A system has a characteristic equation: q(s) = s3 + 20s2+ 5s + 100 = 0
      • Determine whether the system is stable using the Routh-Hurwitz criterion.
      • Determine the roots of the characteristic equation.
   2. A system has the characteristic equation: q(s) = s3 + 10s2+ 29s + K = 0
      • Shift the vertical axis to the right by 2 by using s = sn – 2, and determine the value of gain K so that the complex roots are s = -2 ± j.
4. Save work in a file with the title: “HW3_StudentID”, with your student id substituted in the file name.  Show all work for full credit.
5. Upload file “HW3_StudentID”

Lab 3

The Stability of Linear Feedback Systems

1. A unity negative feedback system with Gc(s)G(s) = K(s + 2) / (s(1 + τs)(1 +2s)) has two parameters to be selected.
   1. Determine and plot the regions of stability for this system.
   2. Select τ and K so that the steady-state error to a ramp input is less than or equal to 25% of the input magnitude.
   3. Determine the percent overshoot for a step input for the design selected in part (b).Use MATLAB to plot y(t) for a step input R(s).
2. Include all MATLAB code, calculations and screenshots in a Word entitled “Lab3_StudentID”.
3. Upload file “Lab3_StudentID”

Developing Requirements and SDR Documents

1.     Based on the lectures, the Engineering Design text (especially 2.2, 6.1, 6.3, 7, and 8), and your research, do the conceptual design (as explained in Chapter 2 and also above) for your project. Two or three alternative designs should be considered with functional block diagrams for all of them.  You may submit your Conceptual Design Review or System Design Review document as a powerpoint presentation or as a written document.  You may use templates as a guide by doing a search of “conceptual design review template” or “system design review template.” 

1.  Create a Project Requirements Document for your chosen design.  It should include a functional block diagram of the design along with the functional specifications.  This should be a written document.  It is worthwhile to look for templates to guide you by doing a search of “project requirements document” or “requirements specification template” or “specification document template.”   
2. Update your Lessons Learned Document.
3. Be sure to save these documents along with the one last week as you will need to submit these in Week 1 of ET450.
4. Submit these in the dropbox.

Due 2/28/17 at 5:00 p.m. 100 percent original with at least 2 references APA format. Please note there is 2 parts to this assignment. Part 1 is the budget. Need to be in excel format. The format is listed below. Part 2 is a PowerPoint that need to be at least 10 slides not including title and reference page with at least 150 words per slide for speaker notes. Please note it all should be 100 percent original work. ****You do not have to complete an actual PowerPoint. I will like for you to complete the PowerPoint in a word document. We must submit the PowerPoint in word document so that the professor can send it through the plagiarism report. I will complete the actually PowerPoint presentation based on the word document you send.*****

As a member of the finance team, you have been asked to forecast the upcoming year’s operational budget for Krona Community Hospital. Click here for last year’s budget. After reviewing specific data, internal input, and external input from various sources, you find that the executive management team would like the budget to reflect the following:

• 10% increase in inpatient revenue
• 15% increase in outpatient revenue
• 5% increase in pharmacy revenue
• 15% increase in home health and hospital revenue
• 10% increase in payroll and benefits

Note: The budget should be formatted to reflect the percentage increase or decrease from last year’s budget.

Additionally, provide discussion on the following:

• How might you increase revenue in each of the areas? Think outside of the box, and perform research to determine current trends in those areas.
• Why would there be a need to increase payroll, particularly nurses’ salaries?
• Provide an explanation as to how the Krona Community Hospital may be able to achieve an increase in the revenue areas that the chief executive officer (CEO) wishes you to address.
