The work described in this thesis comprises the first in a series of projects dealing with servomechanisms at the Department of Electrical Engineering of McGill University. The particular problem investigated was the control of a servomechanism with one nonlinearity, the saturation of the driving element. As a result of the work a twofold purpose was fulfilled. An insight was gained into the problem of utilizing nonlinear control to optimise the transient response, and test equipment and procedures were developed to facilitate complete testing of all aspects of servomechanisms.
