Despite the application of advanced control technique to improve the performance of electro-hydraulic position control, Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) control scheme seems able to produce satisfactory result. PID is preferable in industrial applications because it is simple and robust. The main problem in its application is to tune the parameters to its optimum values. This study will l...

Electro-hydraulic servo-systems are widely employed in industrial applications such as robotic manipulators, active suspensions, precision machine tools and aerospace systems. They provide many advantages over electric motors, including high force to weight ratio, fast response time and compact size. However, precise control of electro-hydraulic systems, due to their inherent nonlinear characte...

Abstract In general two basic methods are used for controlling the velocity of a hydraulic cylinder. First by an axial variable-displacement pump for controls flow to the cylinder. This configuration is commonly known as a hydrostatic transmission. Second by proportional valve powered by a constant-pressure source, such as a pressure compensated pump, drives the hydraulic cylinder. In this stud...

Abstract—Electro-hydraulic power steering (EHPS) system for the fuel rate reduction and steering feel improvement is comprised of ECU including the logic which controls the steering system and BL DC motor and produces the best suited cornering force, BLDC motor, high pressure pump integrated module and basic oil-hydraulic circuit of the commercial HPS system. Electro-hydraulic system can be stu...

The main goal of the study is to analyze all relevant properties of the electro hydraulic systems and based on that to make a proper choice of the control strategy that may be used for the control of the servomechanism system. A combination of electronic and hydraulic systems is widely used since it combines the advantages of both. Hydraulic systems are widely spread because of their properties...

The present hydraulic variable-pitch mechanism of wind turbine uses three hydraulic cylinders to drive three crank and connecting rod mechanisms respectively; the blades are moved with the cranks. The hydraulic variable-pitch mechanism has complex structure, occupies a lot of space and its maintenance is trouble. In order to make up for the shortcomings of hydraulic cylinder variable-pitch syst...

−Reducing the number of traffic accidents is a declared target of most governments. Since dependence on driver reaction is the main cause of road accidents, it would be advisable to replace the human factor in some driving-related tasks with automated solutions. In order to automate a vehicle it is necessary to control the actuators of a car, i.e., the steering wheel, accelerator, and brake. Th...

This paper proposes an efficient Tracking method for velocity control of an electro-hydraulic servo system (EHSS) in the presence of flow nonlinearities and internal friction. The tracking method controller is a kind of feedback error learning structure. In the proposed method, the Feedback Error Learning (FEL) algorithm is used to control the velocity. There is no need to compute the system ja...

This article describes the composition and working principle of electro-hydraulic position servo control system, and establishes a systematic mathematical model. This article presents a controller which is based on Fuzzy neural networks for an electro-hydraulic speed governor. The design process of the RBF Fuzzy neural network control is introduced in detail. This controller which combines the ...
