In this paper, the 6-dof electric motion platform system designed for the helicopter simulator satisfying the class of the CASA(Civil Aviation Safety Authority) level 2 is presented. From the kinematic, dynamic and structural analyses for motion base and electrical actuator systems, we show the feasibility of the developed motion platform system by producing the acceptable results of the test and evaluation according to the requirements specified in the CASA level 2. Furthermore through this development we suggest newly the adaptability of the electrical actuator system up to 10 ton class motion platform system, whose usage will be broaden rapidly, substituting with the advantage over the conventional hydraulic system.

The unbalance heavy-load elevation driving systems are composed of rotating link-mechanism and hydraulic cylinder which actuates elevation and compensates the static unbalance moment of supporting mechanism. Control and compensation of gun driving is very difficult because these mechanism imply highly nonlinearities due to hydraulic fluid characteristics and mechanical rotation of link-mechanism. In this study, through the analysis of manufactured link-mechanism, the optimal link-mechanism design of the elevating system is suggested. Also to estimate the control performance of the unbalance heavy-load elevation servo-control driving system, modeling and simulation of the system are carried out. To prove the reliability of performance estimation program,simulation results are compared with the experimental results. Both results are similar, therefore this program will be helpful to study the control performance improvement of the system.

This paper proposes a simple and intuitive model-free torque-tracking control for rotary electro-hydraulic actuators. The undesirable natural-velocity-feedback effect is discussed by introducing mechanical impedance into the electro-hydraulic actuation system. The proposed model-free torque control comprises inner- and outer-loop control to achieve two control objectives. Inner-loop control reduces the mechanical impedance passively and optimally. To improve the tracking accuracy, a certain form of proportional-integral-derivative control is applied to the outer loop. The robustness of the proposed closed-loop system against external disturbances is demonstrated by transforming the two-loop control structure into a disturbance observer form. The proposed method is validated on a single joint electro-hydraulic actuator.

Active suspension controls stiffness and damping between unsprung mass and sprung mass in order to increase the ride quality. However, to increase the riding quality, the handling quality should be decreased and the rattle space should be increased. So, active suspension should cope with these conflict conditions. Therefore its actuating devices have to produce sufficient actuating force and have sufficiently short response time. In this paper, the dynamic characteristics of 1/4 car model with an active suspension is studied according to hydraulic design variables. The active suspension consists of a hydraulic servo valve and a hydraulic cylinder. It shows better performance when it has more powerful and faster actuator.

The position control of the electro-hydraulic servo indexing system in a flexible forging machine was investigated. The role of an Electro-hydraulic servoindexing system is to rotate a workpiect fast and accurately to a desired position. Since the inertia of a workpiece changes during each forging step, an adapt control scheme could be adopted to the position control of the workpiece. A generalized predictive control method which depends on predicting the plant output over several steps ahead based on the assumption about future control actions is proposed. The perormance of the proposed GPC algorithm is investigated experimentally and compared with that of PID control. Experimental results show that the proposed GPC algorithm is satisfactory for the position control of the workpiece of an electrohydraulic indexing system.

In this study, underdeveloping heavy-load driving servo control system, which are composed of controller, electro-hydraulic servo-valve, hydraulic motor, reduction gear box, turret slew bearing and turret structure, are investigated to simplify the control system. To estimate the effect of each component, model ins and simulation of linear and nonlinear system are carried out. In the first stage, to prove the retiability of performance estimation pro-gram, simulation results are compared with experimental results. In the second stage, the effect of each component of control system is evaluated and then a simplified control system is suggested.

This study presents a genetic algorithm-based method fur optimizing control parameters in the pressure control of electro-hydraulic pump with variable displacement. Genetic algorithms are general-purpose optimization methods based on natural evolution and genetics and search the optimal control parameters maximizing a measure that evaluates the performance of a system. Four control gains of the PI-PD cascade controller for an electro-hydraulic pressure control system are optimized using a genetic algorithm in the experiment. Optimized gains are confirmed by inspecting the fitness distribution which represents system performance in gain spaces. It is shown that genetic algorithm is an efficient scheme in optimizing control parameters of the pressure control of electro-hydraulic pump with variable displacement.

Soft fluidic actuators (SFAs) are widely utilized in various areas such as wearable systems due to the inherent compliance which allows safe and flexible interaction. However, SFA-driven systems generally require a large pump, multiple valves and tubes, which hinders to develop a miniaturized system with small range of motion. Thus, a highly integrated soft actuator needs to be developed for implementing a compact SFA-driven system. In this study, we propose an electro-hydraulic soft zipping actuator that can be used as a miniature pump. This actuator exerts tactile force as a dielectric liquid contained inside the actuator pressurized its deformable part. In addition, the proposed actuator can estimate the internal dielectric liquid thickness by using its self-sensing function. Besides, the electrical characteristics and driving performance of the proposed system were verified through experiments.

This study is concerned with the optimizing method of control parameters for a hydraulic speed control system by using genetic algorithms which are general purpose search algorithms based on natural evolution and genetics. It is shown that the genetic altorithms satisfactorily oiptimized control gains of the PI speed control system of an electrohydraulic servomotor and that optimization of control para- meters can be achived without much experience and knowledge for tuning. It is also shown that optimal gains may be determined from fitness distribution curves plotted in given gain spaces.

최근 중 저압용 진공 차단기의 구동 메커니즘으로 영구자석형 조작기(PMA)가 널리 사용되고 있다. 이는 모터 스프링이나 유압 및 공압식 등과 같은 기계식 메커니즘에 비해 성능과 신뢰성에서 우수함을 인정받고 있다. 그러나 기존 영구자석형 조작기에서는 가동자와 영구 자석 사이의 큰 마찰력으로 인한 에너지 손실과 차단부와의 연결 로드에서의 기계적 고장 및 파손이 유발될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 가동자의 로드에 베어링 타입의 부싱을 장착한 모델을 제안함으로써 이 문제를 해결하고자 한다. 부싱을 이용하여 영구 자석과 가동자 사이의 공극을 확보함으로써 마찰을 감소시키고 기계적 안정성 및 동작 특성 향상을 기대할 수 있다. 유한요소법(FEM)과 시간차분법(TDM)을 이용하여 제안된 모델의 동작 특성을 해석하였고, 이를 기존 모델의 특성과 비교하여 그 우수성을 검증한다.
