Compute the loci departure angles from the poles and arrival angles at the zeros. 5. Assume s0 = jω0 and compute the point(s) where the locus crosses the imaginary axis for positive K. 6. The equation has multiple roots at points on the locus where da db b ds − a ds = 0. If s0 is on the real axis, these points are points of breakaway or breakin. Compute the angles of arrival and the angles of departure for any points of multiple roots. 7. Complete the locus, using the previous steps and your experience. 1
