Drawing the root locus (Interactive Tool)

Drawing the root locus (Interactive Tool)

This page was developed to help student learn how to sketch the root locus by hand. You can enter a numerator and denominator for G(s)H(s) (i.e., the loop gain) and the program will guide you through the steps to develop a sketch of the root locus by hand. 

It is not the intention of this page to be used as a generic design tool, it is simply a teaching tool. As such, it is only designed to work with poles and zeros that are relatively small numbers (say between 0 and 20).
