---------------

G(s) = 1/[(s+1)*(s+2)]
H(s) = 4/(s+10)

Routh Criterion for closed loop system stability:

1. Proportional controller: K in the forward path

Transfer function = Y(s)/R(s) = k*G(s)/[1+kG(s)*H(s)]

Charcteristics function: [1+kG(s)*H(s)] = 0

Look at coefficients and arrange them in routh table and make sure that values in column do not change signs (+/-) for stability.

[1+kG(s)*H(s)] = 1 + k*1/[(s+1)*(s+2)]*4/(s+10)
(s+1)*(s+2)*(s+10) + 4k = 0
s^3 + 13 s^2 + 32 s + (20+4k) = 0

Develop the Routh table

s^3 1 32
s^2 13 (20+4k)
s^1 [32-{(20+4k)/13}] 0
s^0 (20+4k)

For stability, all the column 1 ...
