In the first line of your comparative table there seems to be a
different in signs:
Control model Killeen's model Equivalent formula
···
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) F = F + (m*R - M)*dt d = d + (M - m*R)*dt F = F + (m*R - M)*dt
^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^
Unless there is a compensating change of sign later in Killeen's
equations, Killeen's model will be a positive feedback system.
