Abstract :
The Ritz-Galerkin method is used to develop the equations for finding frequency response curves for a servomechanism with backlash. Response curves are presented for free oscillations of the system for three values of gain. The Ritz-Galerkin method is used to find the hunting frequency and hunting amplitude of such a system. Favorable agreement was found between an experimental check with an electronic analog computer and the calculated results.
