Abstract :
A generalized root locus following technique is presented. Fundamentally, the concept involved is that of approximating a locus by a straight line in order to predict another point on the locus. The method is applicable to a large class of root loci problems and yields expressions for calculating the real and imaginary parts of the roots in terms of the parameter for which the locus is desired.
