Topic: Semi-active vibration isolation system with variable damping control

work completed till now

1. Using the already derived equations fro paper, a MATLAB equation to plot the frequency
response similar to as given in journal.
2. A simple derivation of transfer functions considering seven different values of damping ratio
for second damper (as per journal). We arrived at similar results what was given in journal.
3. Simulink model is being analysed (open loop response) and to arrive at plot for frequency
response similar to what was possible from using an equation. Using simulink control
design toolbox, it was possible to generate a frequency response by sweeping the input
signal from 0 rad/s to 50 rad/s.
