The gimbal stabilization mechanism is used to provide the stability to an object mounted on the gimbal by isolating it from the base angular motion and vibration. The purpose of this paper is to present a model of control servo system for one axis gimbal mechanism using a cascade PID controller. The gimbal torque relationships are derived by taking into consideration the base angular motion. Th...

This paper addresses the experimental identification of a servo actuator which is used in many industrial applications. Because the system consisted of electrical and mechanical components, the behavior of the system was nonlinear. In addition, the under load behavior of this servo was different. The load torque was considered as the input and a two input-one output model was presented for t...

Stack-type piezoelectric actuators, which usually consist of several ceramic layers connected in series, are widely used in piezoelectric direct-drive servo valves (PDDSV). However, poor pulling force capacity of this kind of actuators affects the performances of the direct-drive servo valves. This article presents a new type of PDDSV, whose spool-driving mechanism is composed of a set of indep...

The integrated design was introduced about the pitching part of airborne radar servo system. The paper analyzed both the servo system model and the dynamic character of this system. Then the research about parameter optimization and simulation had been done by using the Matlab. The electromechanical coupling model and the optimization model were built up based on model of mechanism transmission...

This paper investigates artificial neural network (ANN) based modelling and compensation of nonlinear friction which is a major cause of performance degradation in servo mechanisms. Different friction modelling and compensation schemes have been reviewed and neural network based hybrid compensation methods are proposed and experimentally tested on a direct drive servo mechanism. Inertial dynami...

The objective of this paper is path planning of a 3 DOF planer robot with hydraulic actuator using genetic algorithm. First the geometric and kinematic parameters of robot were established. The equations of motion are derived by Lagrange method. We proposed the model for proportional valve and hydraulic actuators. Then using the genetic algorithm we minimized the hydraulic energy consumption as...
