Describing function analysis using MATLAB and Simulink.

This article uses computer-aided design tools to develop a describing function analysis of a pendulum clock. We design the escapement as a control system that allows the pendulum to provide the required time keeping and, at the same time, add enough energy to the pendulum to overcome the damping cau...
