Mathematical Approach
Among many ways of defining the characteristic of a system, obtaining a transfer characteristic is one of the most commonly used methods. Below are the steps to obtain the transfer function, eq 4.
Before going into the equations, first conventions should be set up, which will follow the convention data used. The first subscripts 'g' and 'm' each represents generator and motor. The superscripts 'f', 'r',and 'a', correspond to field, rotor, and armature.
= plant state vector = gain = time constant = polar moment of inertia = angular viscous friction = rotational inductance constant = Laplace operator
eq 1: The generator field equation
eq 2: The equation of electrical equilibrium in the armature circuit
eq 3: Motor torque equation
With total impedance, neglected, the transfer function can be obtained by solving eq 3 .
eq 4: Transfer function
with the constants defined as below:

Famous quotes containing the words mathematical and/or approach:
“The circumstances of human society are too complicated to be submitted to the rigour of mathematical calculation.”
—Marquis De Custine (1790–1857)
“Girls tend to attribute their failures to factors such as lack of ability, while boys tend to attribute failure to specific factors, including teachers’ attitudes. Moreover, girls avoid situations in which failure is likely, whereas boys approach such situations as a challenge, indicating that failure differentially affects self-esteem.”
—Michael Lewis (late–20th-century)
