    Hello everyone,
    I'm a student in electromechanical engineering and i received a difficult question for my exam and i need to answer it. But i don't know how to start and which steps follow to answer. So i decided to ask your help. I know the question is long so i will understand if anyone doesn't want to answer. But all idea or solutions will be appreciated and thanked.
    Here is the question and the given data's:

    Here is the question and the given data's:
    In electric traction systems with power electronic converters measures are needed to avoid DC link voltage instability, associated with large supply line current fluctuations. This can be analysed on lab scale with the model described below.
    The DC power supply, including overhead line, is simulated by means of a transformer fed diode rectifier and a 10 mH reactance. The traction system itself is modelled by a DC-link capacitor (15000 μF), a power transistor and a freewheeling diode connected to compose a chopper. The traction system input reactance is simulated as part of the previously mentioned 10 mH reactance. The traction motor is simulated by means of a DC motor with series connected field windings, loaded with a DC generator.
    Analyse by means of simulation the control measures that have to be taken to damp the fluctuations, with minimal loss of torque control dynamic performance, which is needed for anti-skid control by the traction system.
    Evaluation criteria are as follows: Quality of the mathematical models and the simulation models; Quality of transfer functions used for the control analysis. Quality of the proposed solutions (8);
    Adequacy of the proposed control systems (4);
    Quality of the simulations, in particular taking into account the non-linear behaviour (4);
    Quality of the controls, in particular with respect to the damping of the fluctuations and preservation of the control dynamics (4).

    You asked how to start and which steps to follow.

    There are some diagrams you will need to draw. One has to do with the control aspect. Another is electric equivalent of the mechanical system. Another is the circuit of the supply itself. Also, there are sketches you may need related to performance, such as frequency response and stability.

    From the relevant diagrams, formulate equations. There are several. The is an electrical circuit with its equations. There is a control system with its equation. There is an electrical analogue to the mechanical system with its equations.

    Will this help you get started? Is there something specific you need help with?
