Damping Ratio (zeta) vs Measured Percent Overshoot

Fórmula

Damping Ratio from Overshoot

The damping ratio determines the character of a second-order system response. It can be extracted from a measured step response by noting the percent overshoot.

Formula

zeta = ln(%OS/100) / sqrt(pi² + ln²(%OS/100))

  • zeta < 1: underdamped (oscillatory)
  • zeta = 1: critically damped (fastest non-oscillatory)
  • zeta > 1: overdamped (sluggish, no oscillations)
  • Ejemplo Resuelto

    A step response shows 20% overshoot.

    1. 01ln(0.20) = -1.6094
    2. 02zeta = 1.6094 / sqrt(9.8696 + 2.5902)
    3. 03zeta = 1.6094 / sqrt(12.4598) = 1.6094 / 3.5299
    4. 04zeta = 0.4559

    Preguntas Frecuentes

    What damping ratio is considered optimal?

    For most control systems, zeta between 0.6 and 0.8 is considered good. This gives a fast response with acceptable overshoot (less than 10%). zeta = 0.707 gives the fastest response without resonance peak amplification.

    Can I measure damping from the decay of oscillations?

    Yes. The logarithmic decrement delta = ln(x_n / x_{n+1}) relates to damping as zeta = delta / sqrt(4*pi² + delta²). This method works well for lightly damped systems.

    What if there is no overshoot?

    If the step response has no overshoot, the system is critically damped (zeta = 1) or overdamped (zeta > 1). In this case, the overshoot method cannot be used directly.
