In this paper, an active vibration control of a translating tensioned string with the use of an electro-hydraulic servo mechanism at the right boundary is investigated. The dynamics of the moving strip is modeled as a string with tension by using Hamilton’s principle for the systems with changing mass. The control objective is to suppress the transverse vibrations of the strip via boundary control. A right boundary control law in the form of current input to the servo valve based upon the Lyapunov’s second method is derived. It is revealed that a time-varying boundary force and a suitable passive damping at the right boundary can successfully suppress the transverse vibrations. The exponential stability of the closed loop system is proved. The effectiveness of the control laws proposed is demonstrated via simulations.

The objective of this paper is to design the variable structure system(VSS) controller for the tracking control of excavator which is driven by electro-hydraulic servomechansim. It is generally agreed that the dynamic characteristics of the robot arm such as excavator are coupled, time varying, and highly nonlinear, and also hydraulic system contains nonlinear characteristics in itself, so performing exact position control and trajectory tracking control need remarkable consideration. To solve this porblem, this system was designed as a variable structure system. The salient feature of VSS is that the sliding mode occur on a switching surface. While in sliding mode, the system remains insensitive to parameter variations and disturbances. This control algorithm was applied to a hydraulic excavator by simulaltion and to a simulator by experiment. And its effectiveness was verified. And the results of VSS for the electro-hydraulic excavator was compared with that of the PID when load disturbances and system parameter variations exist.

The variable structure controller has the characteristic that while in sliding mode, the system moves along the switching plane in the vicinity of the switching plane, so it is robust to the parameter fluctuations of the plant. However, a controller based on a variable structure may not meet the desired performance when it is commanded to track any input or exposed to disturbances. To solve this problem, a sliding mode controller based on the IVSC approach excluding an integrator is proposed in this study. The proposed sliding mode control was applied to the position control of a hydraulic cylinder piston. The sliding plane was determined by the pole placement and the control input was designed to ensure the existence of the sliding mode. The feasibility of the modeling and controller was reviewed by comparing it with a conventional proportional control through computer simulation using MATLAB software and experiment in the presence of significant plant parameter fluctuations and disturbances.

In a hydraulic control system, since a hydraulic cylinder drives a relatively large mass of an object, an external load force acts as a disturbance on the control performance of the system. Additionally, as the hydraulic system is used for a long period, there are disturbances that occur gradually, such as a drop in supply pressure because of abrasion of the pump, oil leakage from a valve, and oil leakage from a cylinder. In this study, a state feedback controller based on a linearization technique is applied. To prevent the performance degradation of the controller from the load disturbance, an Extended Luenberger observer (ELO) is used for the Extended system. The case of using the proportional controller, which is a representative linear controller, and the result of using the controller designed in this study are compared and reviewed through simulation. Also, we propose an experimental gain-setting method for a state feedback controller that can be used at industrial sites, and examine how the stability and control performance of the system changes because of the disturbance inputs through the experimental results.

In general, for high performance pressure control system, hydraulic system with electo hydraulic servo valve controls flow rate, it contains many nonlinear term like square-root and change of bulk modulus by flow rate. But, DDV(Direct Drive Valve) contains pressure control loop itself, then it can eliminate nonlinearity and achieve linearity for hydraulic system. In this paper, parameter identification method which uses input and ouput data is applied to obtain DDV's mathematical model and parameter assuming that dynamic characteristic of DDV is first order system. Then, the state feedback controller was designed to implement the force control of hydraulic system , and the control performance was evaluated.

In the microcomputer-based velocity control for an electro-hydraulic servo system, the effects of control methods and control hardware on the performance of the system were investigated. Experiments were carried out with PID and deadbeat controllers using 8 or 16 bit microprocessor and 8 or 12 bit A/D and D/A converters. It is found that the transient response of the system is better with PID controller than with deadbeat controller. When the number of bits of the microprocessor and converters are small, it is also found that amplitude quantization due to limited wordlength gives significant effects on transient responses of the system. Analytically predicted step-responses are in good agreement with experimental ones.

To evaluate of active suspension, it is necessary for special equipment - so called Test Rig which can perfectly realize the road condition and the impact from the road. And most of the test rig systems controlling force accurately and rapidly consist of electro-hydraulic servo mechanism, and they need robust controller which can endure outer road change. But in the case of PID controller, we should choose its best gains by trial and error method, and once its gains are fixed, they cannot get changed, so we should reset PID controller gains respectively when the road is changed. Therefore based on the load pressure feedback compensation method, our aim at constructing electro-hydraulic test rig is not affected by various road disturbance.

In this study, an extended-state-observer (ESO) based non-linear servo control is introduced for an electro-hydrostatic actuator (EHA). Almost hydraulic systems not only are highly non-linear system that has mismatched uncertainties and external disturbances, but also can not measure some states. ESO that only use an output signal can be used to compensate these uncertainties and estimate unmeasurable states. To improve the position tracking performance, the barrier Lyapunov function (BLF) that can guarantee an output tolerance is introduced for the position tracking error signal of back stepping control procedures. Finally, the proposed servo control is compared with the proportional-integral (PI) control.

The study deals with controlling the velocity of hydraulic motor with PI controller through the control of displacement pump which has higher efficiency than valve-controlled system. This was done as follows. First, we modified original displacement pump and designed this electrohydraulic puma system. Second, after experimenting static and dynamic characteristics, we identified system parameter of approximated model. Lastly, to control the velocity of hydraulic motor we controlled the angle of the swash plate of displacement pump. Test carried out in the laboratory shows that transient and steady state response could be improved by PI controller reducing power loss.
