Therefore, we want to make sure that any system that is designed with those models is robust to the expected variations of the real system. Margin is a way to specify how much uncertainty your system can handle before it no longer meets the requirement. This video explains what disk margin is, why it might be a better representation of how much margin your system has over something like classical gain and phase margins, and how to interpret the results.
