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
