Actuators

Description

The Second Order Linear Actuator block outputs the actual actuator position using the input demanded actuator position and other dialog parameters that define the system.

Dialog Box

Natural frequency

The natural frequency of the actuator. The units of natural frequency are radians per second.

Damping ratio

The damping ratio of the actuator. A dimensionless parameter.

Initial position

The initial position of the actuator. The units of initial position should be the same as the units of demanded actuator position.

Inputs and Outputs

Input	Dimension Type	Description
First		Contains the demanded actuator position.

Output	Dimension Type	Description
First		Contains the actual actuator position.
