Abstract :
The paper describes programs written in FORTRAN for the investigation of limit cycles in control systems with relays. The program can be used for plant transfer functions which are unstable or have time delays. Stability of a limit cycle solution is evaluated and the solution waveforms can be displayed if requested.
