Steady-state response
The final value of the system, should the system is stable
Can also be found by FinalValue Theorem
When is the FVT applicable?
F(s) should have no poles in the right half of the complex plane (Real part should not be +v).
F(s) should have no poles on the imaginary axis, except at most one pole at s=0.
E.g.

DC gain is the ratio of output to input after all transients
have decayed

Poles and zeros
Say we have a transfer function of a system:
The zero(s) of the system are the roots of the numerator
The pole(s) of the system are the roots of the
denumerator/characteristic eqn.
What are the zeros of the system above? What are the
poles?
What is the order of the system?

Finding:
A system is stable only if all the poles of
the system are located in the LHP of the
pzmap!
