Control System
Second order control systems are a fundamental class of feedback
systems that exhibit second-order dynamic behavior. They are widely
used in engineering applications, from electronic circuits to mechanical
systems, due to their ability to provide stable and responsive control.

Transient Response
Analysis
1 Rise Time
The time it takes for the response to go from 10% to 90% of
its final value.
2 Overshoot
The maximum value of the response curve above the final
steady-state value.
3 Settling Time
The time it takes for the response to reach and stay within a
certain percentage of the final value.

Frequency Response
The system's response to sinusoidal inputs, characterized by the
magnitude and phase of the output.
