circle root locus

Apr 06, 2009 8 Replies

A rigid closed loop is rotated around a point on y-axis in x - y plane so that the loop never intersects y - axis, so it has complex roots when intersecting x -axis. Using Laplace transforms or otherwise, find its shape so that its root locus formed by rotation is a circle.

Do your own homework

This is not home-work, appreciate a clue.

How about a coherent problem statement then. Does it intersect the x axis or not? How many dimensions are involved? .

...

Two dimensional problem. It does not intersect x - axis, that is how complex roots arise as mentioned in original post.

As an example for a rotating ellipse as in:

When the closed curve is entirely above x - axis, the roots are complex as stated in original post, but not imaginary as stated in the above tinypic.
