Labs held in room 3073 ECE Building unless otherwise noted.
** Lab 3 held in room 0036 MEB
Equipment:
The ECP Rectilinear Plant is used to illustrate the
behavior of mass-spring-damper systems. The drive motor on the left is used to investigate forced responses, while the three
masses, three springs and single damper can be arranged in a variety of
formations. Encoders linked to the masses communicate the three mass positions
to the computer for analysis. Labs 4 and 5 will use the ECP plant to take a look at step responses, free responses subject to
initial conditions, and identifying modal frequencies and mode shapes.
The Pendubot
is a two link underactuated robotic pendulum,
developed at UIUC by
