A proposed hybrid self-tuning control scheme for single rod hydraulic cylinder which has varying loads is presented here. An adaptive controller is developed for the system that use feedforward and P feedback control for simultaneous parameter identification and tracking control. Through experimental results, the performance comparison of the hybrid self-tuning controller with a constant gain P contro- ller clearly shows its superior ability in handling load changes in quiescent states.

A self-tuning control scheme, incorporated with the simplified 1st-order ARMAX(Auto-Regressive Moving Average eXogenous) model, for single rod hydraulic cylinder which has varying dynamic characteristics is presented here. An adaptive controller is developed for the system that uses feedforward and optimal feedback control for simultaneous parameter identification and tracking control. Through experimental results, the performance comparison of the self-tuning controller with a fixed gain proportional controller clearly shows its superior ability in handling load changes in quiescent states.

Electro-hydrostatic actuators(EHAs), which are usually composed of a direct motor-driven hydraulic pump and a cylinder, have been widely adopted as aircraft actuation systems because of their benefits in terms of improved efficiency, weight savings and the fact that they use a standalone power source. Since the recent trend in construction vehicles has been focus on energy savings in their hydraulic systems, EHAs are expected to be potential substitutes for conventional power transmission, since they are capable of energy recovery as well as highly efficient pump control. In this paper, the start and stop characteristics of EHAs were investigated through cracking pressure analysis of the pilot-operated check valve(PCV), which enables the cylinder to standstill against an external load with no holding effort from the hydraulic pump. A mathematical model that includes the load dynamics and the EHA's internal hydraulic circuit was derived for simulation with the MATLAB Simulink package. This model verified the PCV's opening and closing sequence, which in turn affects the EHA's start and stop characteristics.

본 연구에서는 저속에서도 시스템의 자세 제어가 용이하게 하기 위하여 추진기 뒤에 제어판이 위치하도록 설계하였으며, 일반 서보 시스템과는 달리 무게와 공간 제약이 크고, 제어판 운동에 따른 외란 등록성의 변화가 심하므로 push-pull 형태의 소형, 고출력 편로드 복동 복수 실린더의 작동기를 설계하였다. 또한 일반적으로 서보밸브와 작동기는 일체형으로 설계되나 본 시스템의 공간상 심한 제약으로 인하여 서보밸브와 작동기를 분리하는 방법으로 구조설계를 하고 그 사이 유로는 매니폴드식으로 하여 동력전달을 하였다. 설계된 구동장치를 실제 정밀제작하여 실험을 수행하였으며, 시뮬레이션 결과와 실험에 의하여 얻어진 결과를 비교 분석하여 설계의 타당성 및 시스템의 성능을 검증하였다. 고속 수중운동체에 대하여 저속에서 자세제어를 용이하게 하고, 제한된 좁은 설치공간의 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 1) 추진기 후미에 독립된 4개의 상, 하, 좌, 우 제어판 설치 2) 서보밸브는 몸체에, 작동기는 Tail Tube에 분리 작동 설계 3) 소형의 편로드 복동 복수 실린더로 설계 구성된 유압식 구동장치는 시뮬레이션과 실험 결과를 통하여 시스템의 타당성을 입증하였다. 그러므로, 개발한 구동장치는 저속에서도 큰 제어력으로 자세 제어가 용이하기 때문에 얕은 수심에서 발사시 예상되는 위험 요소를 상다ㅇ 개선 시키므로써 운용범위의 다양화를 가져 올것으로 기대된다.

The motion of single-rod cylinder is typically controlled by the directional control valve. In some case, the hydraulic system should be energized by the man power and at the same time the motion of a cylinder is controlled manually. It may be confusing for a man to do two things at the same time. The solution is to make up the closed hydraulic circuit with the bi-directional pump and single-rod cylinder without using a directional control valve. In the case of single-rod cylinder, the flows at the rod side and head side are so different that several valves should be installed to make the motion of single-rod cylinder possible. The hydraulic system is composed of a bi-directional pump, a single-rod cylinder, pilot operated check valves, a check valve and a counter balance valve for the purpose of actuating the lifter. The characteristics of a suggested system are analysized mathematically and numerically.

Due to the high power to weight ratio and fast response under heavy load, the hydraulic systems are still applied to the development of many industrial facilities such as heavy duty construction vehicles, aerospace/military weapon actuating systems and motion simulators. Unlike the other actuators, single-rod hydraulic cylinder exhibits a lot different dynamic characteristics between the extending and retracting stroke because of the difference in pressure acting areas. In this research, in order to overcome this nonlinear feature, $H_{\infty}$ optimal controller was designed and implemented with DSP board that was specifically developed for the experiment. From the experimental result, we could confirm that the overall performance of single-rod hydraulic servo system is similar with the results as we expected in the design stage.

A control of nonlinear system is motivated by the fact that all real plants are nonlinear systems and model identification introduces parameter errors. The purpose of this study is to design a Discrete Variable Structure Controller(DVSC) for single-rod hydraulic cylinder system. The model contains uncertain parameters which we known to lie upper and lower bounds. In the design of DVSC, the boundary layer concept was adopted to reduce cattering. The DVSC was evaluated through digital computer simulation and compared with a VSC (analog controller).

In eliminating the nonlinear characteristics such as piston displacement dift and difference in speeds of the reciprocating motion due to their nonsymetrical structure of single rod cylinder, the linear model can be given by equivalent outside disturbance, etc. The position control method of single rod cylinder servosystem using the sliding mode control of VSS was suggested and the good results without off-set are compared with PD control of fixed structure system.

For position control of electro-hydraulic servo system, single rod cylinders and double rod cylinders are used. Single rod cylinders have simple structure for manufacturing but different volume ratio of two sides induce to non-linearity in process of then mathematical modeling. So only with conventional PID control method it is difficult to control single rod cylinders precisely. For mole precise position control of single rod cylinders, a controller which is inserted a velocity feedback PID controller and MRAC controller are proposed. With experiment control performances of three control methods are compared. In case of experiment, for external varying load to the system, a hydraulic cylinder and a pressure control valve are used. In conclusion a MRAC is considered a suitable control method for external varying load.
